(apologies to Ogden Nash)

Steaming garbage an archaic law
Migrating larvae locate the jaw
Eosinophilia results
Causing muscular insults
Because you ate Porky raw

A scolex holds them in place
Meshed in the digestive space
Eggs secretly ingested
Brain fully infested
Paralysis, dementia, malaise

Texas cattle are dying or sick
Boophilus, Rhicephalus, your pick
Bloodsuckers their role
Hemozoin their goal
And all in the name of a tick

The blood is a host to this guest
Erythrocytes serve it the best
Through fever and chills
This parasite kills
Romanovsky's a positive test

Chickens are sick with Eimeria
Coccideans linked to malaria
Through divisions schizogeny
They increase their progeny
Polluting with much dysenteria

Babbling brook a visual delight
Compounding the backpackers plight
With beavers upstream
Diarrhea's no dream
With Flagyl nowhere in sight

No-see-ums, a biting pest
Deserts they sometimes infest
Progressive skin damage
And visceral rampage
Antimoniacals, nutrition, and rest

Unhygenic waitress serves lunch
Contaminates the sandwich you munch
Intestinal lesion
Serves as the reason
For bloody, mucous-filled stools by the bunch
