Unwelcome Company

How dare you
arrive unannounced,
getting all up
in my face
and invading my house.

How dare you
bring tears to my eyes,
keep me up
all night
with fretting, fitful cries.

Who the hell do you think you are,
pulling my kids into this too,
making everyone 
feel lightheaded,
not knowing what to do!

Who the hell do you think you are,
making me feel so old.
You are entirely
unwelcome,
you nasty Common Cold!
