PRESCRIPTION

Dr. Doom told him
a season in hell
might be good
for his health

Said he was at the third level
of disaster and damage

The train was speeding up,
and the tracks were a damnation
waiting for him on some sad night
of absolute closure

Hell is a questionable cure
that doesn't work most of the time,
it's like getting stomped on
in an endless alley - forever

For him only grim possibilities,
his power grids are failing -
he's an American.
