M. L. Kiser Poet Diminished Hexaverse

A Fly On the Wall

 An old expression,
“A fly on the wall”,
Means the walls have eyes
And ears to witness;
What is happening.

You want to know
Who’s talking, what
They say about
You and others.

You want to 
Be a “fly”
“On the wall”.

You know
That they...

Talk.

Gershon Wolf February 23, 2019 at 10:10 PM Well, 'the walls have ears,' they say. Eyes too.... Hit-and-run drivers discover this the hard way usually. ~ gw M. L. Kiser February 24, 2019 at 10:43 AM Ooh, don't they! There are eyes and ears everywhere now and they are not for taking only selfies. Thanks again.

Caren Krutsinger February 23, 2019 at 6:28 AM Mine are actually rolling their eyes and sticking their tongues out at me today, but Trixie is handling it while I type. M. L. Kiser February 23, 2019 at 7:58 PM Trixie is also a fly tamer? Boy she is talented.
