The Mosquitoes Might

Who could have wondered the mosquitoes might? I never did until this night They put their treats directly to my face My legs they attacked as they made their case Fresh and calm the breeze from the window blow Dragging and blawing I pouffed the smoke In peace and fun they pierced and sucked my blood I think this night we are all just having fun just look I drag and drag thinking of how to clap for it She sucks with skills with one wing awaiting to take a flight A champion clap I wish to give her This wish of mine I must deliver Their signature sign of victory is malaria So I must clap because in Nigeria It kills people more than the hearders So my unfriendly clap must be heard. I now respect the mosquitoes might From this night and all nights.
