Haiku of Frustration

Just a deadly sneeze,
The days of swine and noses,
Filled with virusies.

Swine flu pandemic
symptoms mimic normal flu
I work with children

April Fifteenth, huh?
Where the hell are the results?
Kind of important….

crippled and limping
i walk like i’m years older
taste of what’s to come

Pollen count is high
All of nature… it hates me
Oh, just kill me now!

Too many hours
In front of computer screen
Eyeballs start to bleed

Antibiotics
First round didn’t work for me
My sinuses cry

So much for trying
to get off allergy meds
Fucking awful day!

My stomach hurting,
Shouldn’t have had that pizza
Welcome back weight gain.

The worst part of this
is that I know it’s my fault
and I feel guilty.

Nature, it hates me.
Tries to kill me off, daily
sniff sniff. Ah-choo! sniff.
