Me and My Allergies

cat walks by
sneeze sneeze cough couch
rubbing my red eyes now
throat is starting to close up
sneeze sneeze cough cough 

a smoker’s car
uncontrollable sneezinig and coughing
I can barely breathe
I am wheezing now
sneeze sneeze cough cough 

Elderly aunt all dressed in pink
Walks toward me for an embrace
As she gets closer I begin backing away
I am in full blown coughing mode now
Wheezling and sneezing

My throat closes up,
I will take that allergy pill now I think
Right before I pass out 
Due to her wearing enough perfume
To asphyxiate all the girls in a French whore house
Cough Cough Sneeze Sneeze Wheeze Wheeze

Maurice Rigoler Date: 6/21/2020 2:37:00 PM I never suffered wfrom allergies when young. But after entering my 70s I began to have them, from natural sources (pollen etc) and also cheap perfumes many women wear (or do they bath in it?) So far they aren't severe enough that I require a doctor or medication. / Maurice Login to Reply

Lindsay Laurie Date: 6/21/2020 12:03:00 AM Hello Caren … seems to be so much more allergy problems. Being stung by a bee and touching prawn shells makes life uncomfortable. I did enjoy the message in your poem Caren - Lindsay Login to Reply Caren Krutsinger Date: 6/21/2020 9:31:00 PM Thank you very much Lindsay
