David Fisher Poet Rhyme

Ahem This Phlegm

Ahem this phlegm
In snotty body
Needs and pleads
A hotty-toddy.

Think a drink
Or pill will
Fight my plight
Kill this ill?

I might ply
With some rum
Debauch with scotch
Numb the glum.

Until that swill
Outs this bout
My poor sore
Snout will spout.

B. Andrew Kelly January 21, 2024 at 12:55 PM somehow your humorous prose made the notion of being sick sound playful. i enjoyed this quite a bit!
