I Heard the Mosquitoes, I Was Not Afraid
last night
Late heat,
temperature higher than body
In the unlit darkness
Let's move the cell phone
I saw the mosquito
on the screen
buzzed.
I turned off and fell asleep
In the morning
my wife was upset
the mosquitoes bite and redden
shoulder,
calves,
the back,
and thigh and
I was all right
always, yes
even mosquito only like wife.
