The Smiling Dealer—unshaken, adored—

The Smiling Dealer—unshaken, adored—
Writes in the margins, then cashes the ward.
Forgotten titles echo in corridors slick,
Each bottle a headstone, each click a trick.
Healing’s a handshake, comfort is cost—
Salvion, a script for those already lost.
He carves out the living with God in his eyes,
Prescription the weapon, each warning a lie.
He’s not the doctor remembered in prayer—
But the final confession for those in despair.
His signure gold, his laughter concealed,
He is the disease that will never be healed.
