NaPoWriMo Day Twenty-Two: Joy of Spring

Body consumed
green goo clogging
breathing becomes difficult

fever rages
chest rattles
pain in throat
making consciousness
unbearable

hacking volumes
phlegm splattering
face swollen

happy spring!

I thought I'd write my own springtime ode today.

    1. I did manage to spray lemon juice in my eyes during a coughing fit last night. The searing pain did distract from the cough. I wouldn't recommend it though.

  3. We're both in the same boat. I have bad allergies too. Hope you feel better.

    1. I'm dry from all of the antihistamines and decongestants, so, yes, I am feeling much better, thanks! I hope that you are feeling better too!

    1. Oh no, Susie! I hope that you are okay and that it's not asthma. Although that does remind me of a Radiolab story where this guy gave himself hookworm on purpose to try to alleviate his asthma and allergy symptoms. Sorry, my mind goes weird places.

Hi! Thank you for the visit! Grab a plate and a sweet tea and let's dig in. It may take a while, but I always try to reply and return visits.
