Insecticide is
like a bad app you always
Have to log-in to!
2.
Insects are funny.
What I thought was, “a bold wasp”
Was two flies fucking!
3.
Poet writes of flies.
honey bee seeking nectar
Finds only… cologne.
4
Ants are everywhere!
Ants fall from the trumpet vines
Wherever they’re brushed!
5.
Then what do I see
In a great big fucking rush?
A goddamn cockroach!
6.
Man, I was like, “RAID!”
Then I dropped baits and I sprayed
Peppermint oil.
7.
Nature’s fine. Not here.
My home’s for people- not flies,
Bees, ants, or roaches!
