Torpedo

that familiar refrain 
flailing arms in the night 
an itch filled torpedo
small but bitey

mozzzzzzzzzzquito!

Isn’t it amazing how one tiny little insect can completely irritate and upset one’s calm. If trying to sleep, it is the worst sound. Congratulations on your wonderful win Julie. Blessings xxoo

Thank you Connie. That Mozzie whine is teeth gratingly annoying isn't it :) I appreciate your feedback.
