Besieged
Ambushed by a swarm of unseen bugs
besieged by a gang of microbial thugs
— or so the theory goes —
it took five maybe six
vicious savagely raspy days
to rip the cold's grip from your throat
and another runny nearly-as-nasty eight
filled to spilling with coughing and hawking
and blowing your raw clogged up nose
to lift the thick fog
that swallowed your noggin
and staunch the bulk of mucus-filled flows.


Not sure I "like" this, as such! Very descriptive - get well soon.
Very visceral, I feel the pain! Well done. Meanwhile, we must all keep detoxing the jab junk that sheds to us from the quackcinated.
