A New Literary Form. But It Lacks "Mesothelemia"

Yankee Fog is writing:

Yankee Fog: Poems Based On The Most Desirable Adwords, Part IV: A Limerick On The Theme of "Asbestos Attorney"

A wily asbestos attorney
got a job as an ER intern. He
knew a new client
would prove most compliant,
anesthetized there on the gurney.

But this limerick is unsatisfactory. It needs the word "mesothelemia" in order to be effective.
