Wasp

Orange yellow gyroscope
Like hovering above nowhere
Watching moving obstacles
Adjusting to wind gusts
Looking like it 
Would pack a punch
Ever so carefully
It  maneuvers to get
To the entrance
The hole in the vent
Has been blocked
By some monster
Called human but
It finds a way round
And enters into 
Its hideaway.

Oh there are many here in the tropics that I'm obliged to eliminate them. One got in the lamp and in my bedroom and stung! Well, your poem definitely treat them differently! :D Congrats.
