Riddle Me This

As I was walking to St. Ives,
I met a man with seven lives.
Each life had seven ills.
Each ill had seven pills.
Each pill had seven aches.
Aches, pills, ills, lives,
I'm not so sure I'll enjoy St. Ives.

Nice take on the children's poem! Funny and poignant. I love the last line. :)

Very nice, Riddler. I'm not sure that I would enjoy St. Ives either (although it sounds like somewhere that I've been).
