Germ warfare

Dear Ladies I beg of you all
Please listen to my vital call
Our handbags are so precious
We carry everything we need
But do we even realise
The germs that there-on breed?
Where do you put your handbag?
When you go to the loo?
Is there really anything that we can do?
To halt this awful tide of germ warfare?
Please don't put your bag
Down onto that yucky floor
How do you really know
What's been there before?
How do we hold onto our bags?
How do we manage what we must?
How do we do these things?
Who can we really trust?
Please keep a hold of 
Your precious handbag
Maybe even hang it on
That back of that silly door!
But dear ladies: please don't 
Let it touch that awful floor!
