Blowfly
Copyright 2010 Russell Leslie Howells
The incessant bzzz....
once,twice
It circles the room.
I pretend to ignore it,
head in a book.
bzzz....
The dog snaps,
misses,
snaps again.
I look for the swat,
find it and wait.
bzzz....
I aim,I strike,I miss.
quiet
I sit and read.
bzzz....
at the window,
easy target.
I aim,I strike.
Bugger me,
I miss again.
quiet
Pages read.
bzzz....
At the window.
Whack!
Got-ya,you little fucker.
dog looks on,
quiet.
