mosquito


little, buzzing around my ear
annoying bug that sucks my blood
why do you exist in the food chain
when there are bats and possums
you carry disease and come with the heat
managing to keep us swatting at you
such a burden for all God’s creatures
as you settle in upon my skin
and while I can feel your feet so light
when I slap at you, you’re already gone
ready to attack some other body part
but I will keep slapping away in hopes
that I will be able to put an end to you
