Dilemma

DILEMMA

Unwanted residents occupy our clinic

Some small, some big, but all are in a race

We keep a trap, Elvira wisely bought

To catch each mouse and close such nasty case

Luz carries each mouse destined to the trap

To be exterminated in disgrace

I suggested to George to rent a cat

Alas! My suggestion seemed out of place

Fathi A. Abdallah, MD

Elvira and Luz: two clinic nurses

George: manager of FMS department
