ODE TO XANAX

A friend of mine takes 3.0 milligrams of Xanax every day.
"You might become addicted," his doctor told him.
"I could care less," he responded. "I'm 68 years old."
He was recently named Texas Teacher of the Year 
and via the med has revived his crumbling marriage.
Based on his successes, perhaps
I should double my dosage.
We all know this undeniable truth:
Pleasure is the absence of pain.
