It will make you squirm
Make you wriggle like a worm
Jump and jiggle -like there’s germs!
Feels like a creepy crawly no one can see
Over, Under and In-between!
scratch, scratch -itchy me
Behind the ears, behind the knee
Inside the elbow, on the cheek
Sometimes even my hands and feet!
Lichenification’s the term, you see
For the dry, red patching that’s ailing me
I really must know what to call this disease.
Atopic Dermatitis- that’s what the Doc said to me.
Eczema- is what those words mean.
Could it be linked to my asthma or allergies?
Maybe, but not di-rect-ly.
They all come from a mutated card 11 gene
Did I just minor in dermatology?
The chemicals around you can make it flare.
So can bacteria, and it’s everywhere
Will it subside as I age
Maybe… but, maybe it won’t
I heard it affects kids the most
All I know is..
It will make you squirm
Make you wriggle like a worm
Jump and jiggle -like there’s germs!
Feels like a creepy crawly no one can see
Over, Under and In-between!
scratch scratch -itchy me
Behind the ears, behind the knee
Inside the elbow, on the cheek
Sometimes even my hands and feet!
Lichenification’s the term, you see
For the dry, red patching that’s ailing me
My life, Now.
