Choose Cure Cautiously

The man is seeking medicine
for his deadly kidney issues.
His discomfort has him down,
and for his tears, no tissues.

The Field Guide is no help here,
only details what is edible.
There may be a plant around,
whose effectiveness is credible.

Oxalis Stricta's bright yellow flowers
contain oxalic acid for sure.
For kidney disease my friend,
this plant holds no cure.

The tall leafy plant looks promising
as the wind blows it to and fro,
but it's the small weed called Plantain
that is the choice with which we will go.
