Sore Throats, Colds, and Blocked Nose
In this modern high-tech age
surely they could have a fix
for the common ailments that abound
that knocks us off into our grtm cage
Sore throats, colds, and a blocked nose
after centuries on Earth, they still exist
why can't a cure be found in this time?
all they say is continue to blow your nose
What a sorry picture this conveys
new heart, new knees and hips are done
but the common cold can't be cured
have we really progressed in our days?
Here I am fighting these ailments
for a whole week, it's knocked me down
with no sign of a change in coming days
never blew my nose so much, quite a scent
But one day it will end
breathe clearly once again
Sooner, maybe than I think
OH, please get me on the mend
(I had a terrible cold a few weeks ago, and these thoughts came to mind of how colds still exist in our modern age)
