Masks and all, still catch my annual spring cold. 4-28-2021

I have a temp,
my forehead's hot,
my throat is scratchy
and hurts a lot.

I feel all sweaty,
from toes to crown.
Energy flagging;
I just want to lie down.

I can't stop sneezing
or blowing my nose.
Every muscle hurts
from my head to my toes

Hot tempered to boot,
if I may be so bold--
why the heck is what I have
called a cold???
