Contagion Poem by Spock the Vegan

When I was a child
I had some lumps
Under my chin
It was the mumps

Another time I had a thing
I would not wish on weasels
On my face I had red spots
It's called the measles

I went to grandma's one day
To play with toys and tops
A week or two went by
And I had the chicken pox

I went to see a friend
His name was Jack Polenza
He opened up the window
And influenza

And now my sister and brother
Another contagion have given me
It happens day and night
I'm writing poetry!
