Scratchy Throat Ruins My Food

taste
not well
scratchy throat
ruins my buds
my sweet coffee irritates me today

my taste buds are cuckoo right now
an angry throat
has captured
and hurt
me

hey
a great
idea
oh my goodness
even mashed potatoes are not helping

I do not think I could stand it black, but thanks for the advice.
