Ulcers on the skin, painful and raw,
The body fighting itself, an autoimmune flaw,
Pyoderma Gangrenosum, a rare disease it may be,
But for those who suffer, it's agony to see.
Inflammation and swelling, the body's response,
To an attack that never came, a mistaken stance,
The immune system confused, attacking its own,
The ulcerous wounds, a painful reminder shown.
For those with Pyoderma Gangrenosum,
Life can be a constant battle, a daily hum,
The wounds slow to heal, the pain persistent,
Affecting the skin, making life resistant.
But through the struggle, hope still reigns,
Medications and treatments, relieving the pains,
Research and support, bringing light to the fight,
For those with autoimmune disease, a beacon of sight.
