IMAGINE

Imagine if gnats and mosquitoes 
could think and talk and know 
which person to bug and pest - 
and who had the best blood 
in the neighborhood.

I guess if I knew they could do that, 
life would be that much harder. 
I wouldn’t be able to whack 
them dead or squash them with 
a Kleenex against a window. 

Yet again - maybe I wouldn’t. 
I totally ignore some people. 
Worse: I sting people and I bug 
people and I don’t ask what they 
think or ask what they are about.
