Acid in my lemonade,
scalded throat,
but still could breathe,
got a form postcard from manufacturer,
many apologies,
then they changed to milk shakes,
but never fixed their recipe,
innocently drank the frozen concoction,
scarred again!
Yet still able to use my wind pipes,
received same sympathy correspondence,
sticking with water
checking bottle for their name.
