crawling up my pants?

Premium MemberAnts

I see an ant crawling along the train platform.
We are like ants in the universe's vast form.
Life as hard as stone, like this ant I am alone,
But I know I will return home, each milestone.

Premium MemberSPRING TINY ANTS

 seen an ant, 
though it’s spring not hot enough
 see the march of ants
~
yes, seen a ant small
tinier than a dot, speck
a group of small ants

Ants

A billion ants all march'd in line
Their Queen doth bruise 'n' bleed them dry
For these poor creatures, world stops not
And no eyes turn'd when one doth drop.

A billion ants all beat 'n' broke
Their minds be torn, their souls revoked
Be turn'd to slaves and free from trust
To feed their monster's greed 'n' lust.

A billion ants whom

Premium MemberButterflies, Moths, Ants and Bugs

A butterfly lights from flower to flower
with golden wings, he whiles away each sunny hour. 
A moth comes out at night, while the world dreams,
guided by the light of silvery moonbeams. 
An ant toils away, working hard for the pack, 
dressing modestly, he's attired only in black.
I try not to judge, as I consider each

Premium MemberThe Queen of Ants

The Queen of Ants flies from her throne,
all in her resplendent wings.
She summons many an eager drone.
Oh, so happily she sings.

It won't be so very long before
(and I'm not joshing you or kidding)
she births a million ants or more.
Each one will do her bidding.

Premium MemberAnts In Your Pants


Ever wonder why we giggle
How does it actually start
What makes it uncontrollable
Perhaps it's a silly old fart

Giggles are quite intangible
You can't buy 'em at the store
Worth buckets full of greenbacks
Some gold and so much more

You're in a state of euphoria
You try to stay calm but can't
It's a tonic for whatever ails you
When ants get in

Premium MemberANTS SNOWED IN WINTER-

O’ the ground is feeling cool turning cold
 As days before winter spoil 
Questions solid froze,
Where do the ants go when the snow comes?
