Priorities Poem by Alessandra Liverani

I've got my list of priorities fixed firmly in my mind
And do you know what at the very top you'll find
Way, way, way above, at least 10 miles higher than all else
Is the priority of the little white stick, sitting on its very special shelf

Priority? That is the understatement of all time
It's prior to priority, and prior again yet to climb
It's the be all and end all, nothing else even comes close
I must have my weekly, no daily, try hourly life giving dose

Because it's a priority, what more can I say
A huge priority that keeps all the monsters at bay
And when I say priority that's exactly what I mean
Please don't tell me that it's exceedingly unclean

It doesn't matter if it kills me, doesn't matter if it costs
Because it's a huge priority, without them I am lost
Give me, give me, give me, those little white sticks right now
They are my priority, my priority you stupid cow! ! !
