Christmas is difficult for me because I am allergic to pine trees, fir trees, poinsettias, and all the scented products that are everywhere.
I wrote a short series of haiku on Twitter that show what happens to me as I try and recover from Christmas allergens.

Because my eyes are itching
And it work me up

Lost a day somewhere
Sicker than I thought I was
Unreliable
