Notes About The Poem

Nod to Tania Kitchin's "Winter Bugs" Collaboration.
No, I am not ill. :)

February Bug

The bug is still here, that darn flu,
I thought I was over it, too.
	It suddenly came back
	and doubled its attack.
It had lasted one month, now two!

I'm glad it was only fiction. I know we sometimes take the poetry of others as being real. ;-)
