#Sijo #poetry #Korean

The dreaded cold or worse has struck me down, I just feel like,
I have been run over by a bus, and everything is painful.
My head is banging despite the medication I have taken.

I need to sleep, but I can't use my CPAP mask, it fills up,
And I feel like I am drowning, coughing, and sneezing all the time.
I slept better without it, but I know I need to wear it!
