Poems...from Rooms 4 and 5 at St Teresa's in Featherston

a problem breathing (guillero)

A problem breathing
the time to go to hospital
huff puff, it hurts
more than 1 in 4 get it
asthma attacks are evil and deadly.

Asthma hurts (adam)

Asthma hurts, asthma kills
send asthma to the hills.
Kick it out, we don't want it
send it all to God.
