Two choices,
Medicine that tastes awful
Or poison that tastes good.

Book Review: "American Poetry: A Very Short Introduction" by David Caplan
Help me, I'm stuck in the Very Short Introduction series and I can't get out! No really, this is becoming the same problem I had a few years ago when I got my limbs caught in the British Library Crime Classics series and ended up reading almost 100 of those books in perhaps a few months. Now, I've managed to find one on American Poetry, I have to say it is probably one of my favourites so far. I mean The Beats is good, but American Poetry has Phillis Wheatley and Emily Dickinson so it is, by default, better. The writer doesn't only display his knowledge of American Poetic History, he also provides some historical accounts of the people who wrote them, commenting on where they fit into the greater American landscape.

a charming style!
I guess it depends on what you're treating. :)
nice
Thought-provoking! I like the depth here--how often what we think we want, what tastes good and is convenient, isn't what's best for us. I also really liked the picture you chose to go along with this poem.
Both, please! I love this! I had a friend from Japan who used to say the same thing. He used to tell me “American medicine doesn’t work, it tastes to good to work. Medicine only works if it tastes awful!” Lol that’s what I thought of when I read this!
