MY ALLY [a pantoum]


MY ALLY

By Debi Lyn

10/04/13

 

Bees and wasps: intruding enemies.

They tend to find their way inside.

I have this “thing” about such critters.

Triple goose bumps and screaming, “Bee!”

 

They tend to find their way inside.

Through poorly sealed windows and opened doors.

Triple goose bumps and screaming, “Bee!”

The vacuum hose is my ally.

 

Through poorly sealed windows and opened doors.

Not to leave the same way they entered;

The vacuum hose is my ally.

Bees and wasps: intruding enemies.
