Ciao poet, you now have two vote!
If someone wants to be prepared, one must acquire knowledge.( study)
If you are taking a SATs or a STDs test knowing the subject(s) is important in both cases.
I remember when Rock Hudson "came out "
in 1985, that's the first time I had heard about AIDS
It had already been spreading in the gay community quite awhile but he made it public domain.
I had no idea he was a homosexual.
Freddie Mercury died of AIDS in 1991. I cried my heart out.
I like the word play.
I know there is some concoction now that helps people with AIDS live longer but there is no cure.
Governments should be investing money in teaching kids about this horrible disease.. it's still out there but they act as if it's not.

I even heard Rock Hudson mentioned in a song recently, sung my a heterosexual woman. Guess he was getting his rocks off in unexpected places.
I think I read a few years ago that there is actually a full-on cure for AIDS now, but it might not work on everyone. Or maybe some people are just immune to it somehow. I'll have to look it up now. 🦍

This tanka, Preparation is Key, has the proper formatting and reminds the readers that both of these items require protection. One is found in study books, the other at the pharmacy.

Or one could slaughter a pig or goat and use their intestines, but that's going REAL old-school. Thanks Bill! 🦍
