is tragedy no joke throat operation takes
two surgeon tiring teamwork hours
tiring on surgeon working in confined space
causes trauma on suregons suffering backs
hours scaping out every last microscopic piece
of cancerous throat tissue meat is
a bitter labour in tight space
the issue is
why ever start smoking
vaping is also a curse
for mugs
might be just as bad or worse
so do yourself a favour
don't smoke don't start life is
precious live longer life savour
