Announcing Venus Fly Traps

The sundews appear first Marching over the horizon with confidence Sage insects scatter, attempting to hide. Pitcher plants show up in the next formation. Announcing the imminent arrival of the Venus Fly Traps. There is a frenzy now. The insects are buzzing in terror. They fly toward the eating army. Anticipating their death. Wanting it to be over quickly.
