A Potpourri of Poetic Curiosities

Pray doctor, tell me, how shall I
be cured of this psychosis?
We must remove the head, I fear,
and practice some meiosis.

Author Notes
Today's word: meiosis (n.) understatement.
psychosis (n.) a mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.
Sam could possibly be someone's father's brother.
The central idea is that hyperbole - or gross exaggeration of issues is the cause of a lot of grief affecting many people today. Perhaps we need to rein this in a bit, to reinstate a smattering of normalcy.
