Perhaps you’re enjoying spring wildflower season. Or maybe instead you’re overwhelmed by allergies.
Pollen!
Oh I hear nature
It’s a callin’
No not like that –
I’m talking pollen!
My nasal passages
They constrict
And not because
I just picked
No it’s all that dust
In the air
The air, my clothes
And everywhere!
It’s so bad now
I can barely breathe
It’s even covering
My whole sleeve!
So it does no good
To wipe with that
It’s so thick now
I’m not sure where I’m at
But nothing to do
Except tread on
And maybe hold my breath
Until it’s gone…
