One Pesky Mosquito

A Pesky Mosquito There is this pesky little mosquito… It nipped painfully down there on my big toe.. Quick! I’ll need to strike back or it will soon flit off again… Even as my brain registers its itchy pain...! Grrr! If only it stays in one place… I’ll make sure it becomes as flat as a pancake… Yes! If only it stays still till I’m ready…. I’ll have it all flattened and crushed already..! One tiny but ever so pesky mosquito… Merrily it flies off to land lightly on another big toe.. All it does, now and then, is to give a little nip… You’ll see me scratching from each itch..! There it lands again, finally! Steadily and stealthily I bend down, right palm opened, up and ready… Ouch! What a mighty slap I did give… Hell! My skin smarts but the mosquito, it still lives..! One tiny pesky little mosquito… I’m going crazy with the itches on both my toes… Do lend me a hand, readers and my fans… Please help me and see off this little fiend..! O God, why such a nasty little insect… Thank Heavens somebody invented this aerosol for insects…! Here, eat this, you nasty, cursed little pest.. This aerosol I spray is supposedly the best in the market..! Aha, oh glory be…! My pesky and nasty little mosquito is finally at rest… When fully into this bug aerosol I put my trust….! Lord! What a relief…! My itching toes, one final scratch, that’s all they need… One pesky little mosquito…. And my poor suffering toes…! http://www.star2.com/living/living-environment/2016/04/27/fear-em-or-hate-em-mosquitoes-are-very-amazing-creatures-heres-why/
