That Bad Cold by Muriel Spark
That hand, a tiny one, first at my throat;
That thump in the chest
I know you of old, you're a bad cold
Come to stay for a few days
Unwanted visitor - a week perhaps.
Nobody asked him to come. (Yes,
He is masculine, but otherwise
Don't try to parse the situation.)
Everything stops. Perhaps
He is providentially intended to
Make cease and desist an overworking
State of mind. Yes, there is a certain
Respite. Friends mean merely a bed
And a hot drink. Enemies and all
Paranoias, however justified, lose their way
In the fog. And the desk diary
Lies open, with a vacant grin.
