Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Drink Coca Cola

Coca Cola, invented in

Eighteen eighty five, did contain

Extracts of the coca leaf then,

Which plain and simple was cocaine.

The "cola" in the name did mean

Coming from the kola nut which

Did contain a lot of caffeine.

A "medicine" was one sales pitch.

All this was legal at the time.

Sellers of Coca Cola could

Make claims without proof and no crime.

Drink Coca Cola and feel "good."

The Coca Cola feel "good" claim

Soon did make it a household name.
