The pharmacy is a medical honeycomb

I had a cold so I told the guy

Who was really a cat, who was really a mouse

My tank was running out of gasoline, he said:

Okay, and? I said: What goes in it? He said: Let me check

I did drink that, in which, I did not,

I think, maybe, just a plant

Anyway, it made me use idioms, so I asked

The guy at the counter

He said: Why? I said: I am running out

Then I got a headache so I just

Walked back up to the counter

I asked the grape, or strawberry,

Or cherry, or bubblegum flavor

To fix it, It did not work, which I’m thinking is because 

it was really ibuprofen, which was really Midol

Which was really, unbelievably, Motrin
