Listen to poem:

My Girlfriend the Virus

I once went out with a virus
She told me her name was Iris
Gave me a fever
Quite the deceiver
So I left with a bad sinus

Then she came back harder once more
This time she left me on the floor
Now in quarantine
She’s not very clean
Stuck with toilet paper galore

Wings, I guess you weren't dating her for her 'infectious' optimism, haha! Made me laugh, especially the last line. Congrats on your win, my friend ~ John

The tale of Iris the virus - sounds like a superhero villian! Guess she's stealing all the toilet paper?
