POISONED PERFUME

We often refer to acid as perfume,
Because it is stuff to make you dead,
Some folk like to keep it in their room,
To take before they go to bed.
It’s called by doctors “Norcuron”,
Used for those who have had enough,
Murder for cash some folk say,
For it is permanently lethal stuff.
They are taken away to fairy land,
Put in a coma; a permanent sleep,
To die due to a doctor’s helping hand,
And the going rate is not cheap.
But who the hell cares if you want to die,
But it’s a choice you’ll not repeat.
