Infestation of Critters

Nearly thirty inches below normal of rain this year It's caused an infestation of critters who lurk near Droning on and on, annoyingly buzzing in my ear Waiting for the chance to stick me with their spear With needle sharp weapons, like the point of a pen Round and round my head they fly, again and again I need hands to swat at them... the size of Big Ben or maybe freeze them with liquid nitrogen or cryogen Oh, bad mosquitoes! What a big proboscis they possess Despite their intent, they've failed to cause me stress Such wicked bites will never leave me a bloody mess When they've fallen at my feet, I'll just say, "God bless." I don't live in fear of them because it's all a charade, the army of bloodsuckers, who seem to be on a crusade to defy peace in every home, they've chosen to invade So, it's time to zap the pesky insects with a can of Raid
