it all began

with a boring sneeze

- air borne yawn germs

in a light breeze




& soon spread like mildfire

from terraced house to mews

& even in some sleepy pockets

almost made the news




So hmmm come the middle

of the then generic month

everyone on earth 

had been infected by the stuff




From agnostic florist to welder

none were spared of this lull

& it's incurable but obviously not fatal

- it's blandytis

the disease of dull

...
