V I R U S

V.I.R.U.S.
Very Infectious Radically Unifying Sickness

Ahh the disease of the sneeze
The spread of the dread 
The fear of being near 
Cough, cough and a ha choo 
Go away you sick one you 
How dare you not cover when you sneeze 
I’m armed with Lysol and aim to Febreze
Don’t foul the air we all breathe 
Bury your face in your sleeve 
Personally, it’s my pet peeve 
Looking for a common sense reprieve 
If your sick don’t bring it to us just leave 
So, wash your dirty paws 
And do your part for the cause 
Follow community laws 
And for a moment take a pause 
And think of more than yourself 
Easy to do I believe 
Take some time for those we lost and, grieve 

Eric (and sometimes not)
