It's a Sneeze

I like to see
Different people
And how they sneeze
Strong or feeble

There is the 'I'll blow your house down' sneeze
When the three chins vibrate like sharks' gills
And the person's head prepares for launch into the trees
It scares listeners and elicits chills

Then there's the sneeze that sounds like a cough
You're not sure whether to say bless you
Or call the greeting off
Is the person faking or sneezing true?

Also we have the multiple sneeze
You know, 2 or 3 in rapid succession
Sounds like an animal suffering, make it stop please
Stay out of this sneezer's direction

That's just a few
There are many varieties
It's a function given to me and you
That seems unnecessary

So how do you sneeze?

I used to try to stifle sneezes, but found that it just hurt my brain... so I'm usually running for a kleenex so I can have a good, satisfying sneeze.

My mom taught me a trick for what to do when you need to sneeze but can't: look up at a light... sunshine and bright lights work best.
