Jones scammed the health nuts every day.

Jones sold them grass and made them pay.

He sold them herbs he said were healthy:

Bought cheap, sold high, got very wealthy.

Sucked in the wife of the town M.E.,

And every year he raised her fee.

He was an expert id motivator:

“Quit now and you’ll regret it later.”

His clients stayed, they paid—regretted.

Nature Guru spent—was wildly feted,

Until the day they found him dead

His throat chokeful of twelve-grain bread.

And the M.E. said—without any pauses—

“It’s clear this man died from natural causes.”
