Cures for the common cold

Consumption of chicken soup
should do you in. eat the bird
that gave you the cold, a form of
cannibalism.

Or inhale the warm ocean but
do not drown, the salt of blood
sends crashing swirls thru
nasal passages.

or give your feet a hot bath, tis
a cold so you are cold. Cook
yourself in this broth to leach
the chill from your skin.

Then, swallow sunlight in liquid
form in vast volumes, reignite the
furnace from within, vitamin C to
constrict the cold, til your skin
combusts in orange flames.
