my girl was irked
that she had suffered for weeks
from some unknown miscreant
virus which made
her cough and clogged
her upper pipes, while i
sailed blithely through
my days unscathed.
it's not fair, she said,
that i am punished for my sins
but you, equally a sinner
are skating on grace.
but today my throat is sore
and my head is clogged
and she tends to me with tenderness
and just a little smugness.
