Contamination

CONTAMINATION
   Please take a moment to wash your hands, 
Clean up that mess all around where you stand.
   Honestly, has it not once ever crossed your mind,
If you looked under that sink what you might find?
  I sometimes wonder when I go to touch my mouth,
I could contaminate myself and become sick no doubt.
  Everything we touch has been touched many times before,
Fighting Germs like these, Well, it's nothing but a war.
  Just try and imagine all the things we must breathe,
Scarry as Hell when it's something we can not see.
  Is there anywhere that is safe you might ask?
I can not answer that, but for now, I'll wear a mask.
  It's all bad and that my Dear Friends is really sad,
When folks don't think of others, it makes me mad.
  We become very ill because of so many contaminations,
Just ask your Doctor when you're at your next examination. 
  Nasty stuff that contamination.
