The Germ
Read 'The Germ' by 'Ogden Nash' and provide your summary and literary analysis in the comments section below.
A mighty creature is the germ,
Though smaller than the pachyderm.
His customary dwelling place
Is deep within the human race.
His childish pride he often pleases
By giving people strange diseases.
Do you, my poppet, feel infirm?
You probably contain a germ.
