OP528. The burly herb gets the worm

Once again, OkieJokey's home computer (running Vista -- YUCCCH!) refuses to connect to his home WiFi so he's asked The Limericist to post for him.  

The email he sent me had this subject line:
"I go through Plenty o' hell mintin' these limericks, then I need to phylum away."  Later on he wrote, "A parasitologist would get the pun."

(The Limericist: I should have flat refused to include that Subj: line.)

My voracious pet tapeworm named Tanya
Let me gorge, yet stay svelte.  Joy, élanJa!
     Alas, marked by my Rolex
     When she’d flex her scolex,
It hurt! … I sucked cloves:  “Do svidaniya.”

Consuming cloves, garlic or curry is a home remedy for a tapeworm infestation.
