Our Priorities

In life we have priorities,

But when you’re feeling sick,

So much of what you care about

Drops down the list real quick.

 

Like how you look or what you wear

Or if your house is clean

Or if you move your car

So traffic cops won’t be on scene.

 

Or making plans to go away

Or maybe meet a friend

Or even watch that series so

You’ll get to see the end.

 

Of course, when you feel better,

Which you hope will happen fast,

Priorities will go right back

To your pre-sickness past.
