I got a virus today.

There were brown spots

before my eyes.

I became feverish

as I worked

on the computer

and it wouldn't

do anything I wanted.

I was shaky

eating my toast

and spilled honey

on my tee shirt.

Going to the doctors

I was troubled

by bears

licking my clothing.

The doctor

removed my glasses

and asked if I had

sprayed the fence

recently.

He knew the symptoms

having had the same

himself.

My hair sticks out

since I stopped

cutting it

I thought it might

have lost interest

at my age.

I've got treatment

for the virus.

It cost £12

and will last a year.
