The Magician

The magician for TOP January 17, 2008

Sorry, I've got a cold and can't think.

There is an ant
in my throat.
It’s crawling around
making me cough.

There is pepper
in my nose.
It’s igniting
sneezes.

There is a bean bag
in my brain.
It’s heavy
and makes me lazy.

There is Nyquil
in my spoon.
Its magic is going
to make me sleep.

    Maybe you need a physician with a deck of cards.
