I have the attention span of a gnat At times not even as long as that So I found some online training game That is supposed to help train my brain Not sure it worked before l lost focus My muse came with hazel hocus-pocus You’d think she’d gift me great poetry But instead I write about silly little me Maybe...

Premium Member If I was a Gnat
If I was a gnat I know whom I would bother I would hide in their garbage disposal flying up into their face when they ran water in their sink I would hit them in the mouth, disgusting them when I tired of being a gnat I would become a mosquito buzzing in the ears of my enemies, biting them...

Ode To a Gnat
Gnats, fruitflies, midges, black flies What do you call them? I call them pests. Unwelcome guests I call them demons from hell. They fly past my face. They go for my eyes. Lucifer in disguise They like my white screen They’re like a bad dream And they’re really no good When they try for my food Oh please go away You devils so small You MUST be gone As summer...

Gnawing gnat breaks through skin Needle nose - spike now in Agile, light, felt no pain Taken blood, their feeding aim Bites now swell and Itch like hell Tiny vampire Eaten well. Scratching, itching - skin unwell. 03.09.21...

Oh Little Gnat
` Hovering like a gnat that finds a face irresistible Swatting frantically does no good as insects will be insects and annoying is part of their plan As it seems each day you find a new offering unfolding its wings, buzzing about with your dirty laundry in tow, as if poetry has become merely a tool to harass Finding little folders to...

A gnat is annoying my nose today. She keeps coming back and landing on me. She is fast. Faster than my grabbing hand. I am eating an apple. Land on that! I wait. She does not respond. A gnat with a mind of her own. I may adopt her. I can often use a good-thinking gnat. In her honor, I have written the thinking gnat...

I was sitting here today writing a poem in my little place, When all of a sudden this gnat comes flying in my face. I swatted once, I swatted twice, but he got away. He was determined that he was going to stay. My house is spotless…how did he get inside? Gnats are a thorn in my side I can’t...

for J.C. Alldridge Full pummelling fisticuffs Stitch over stitch In and out Imperceptibly kaleidoscopic Swirling from ear to ear Sporadic Thrumming mystical notes Notes of whisper Whisper in the ear Now a bothered swish of clawing Cleaving slipping fingers Immalleable rolling universal ball Microcosmic needle into Macrocosmic wool all Silently thudding kneading pulling Sealing a sin all opened unforgiven Eternally whispering to a few And never really heard Pummelling sewing the invisible centre Round and...

I was bitten by a gnat Who didn't ask permission I caught the little rascal How dare he bite me? I put him into a jar. He made a big commotion. So I put a stamp on jar. Sent him to Carrie. By: Joyce Johnson Came in 2nd...

Premium Member Henry 'Gnat' Wilson's Bedtime Routine
Teeth freed late of jaw Catch feign vulture caw Keep time with thumb gum massage. Three jiggers to rinse Fire stick of incense Lifted induced camouflage. Shirt off shorts glued on Vision of futon Once upon a time life rocked. Tent wants repairing Sirens shrill blaring Dumpster score steel trigger cocked. Yawn fingers through beard Glance field-mates look weird Two toe-touches old time's sake. Fetally grounded Mortally wounded War's horrors too much...

Nature is as careless as it is bountiful The faster the death, the faster is evolution. I, a female gnat ,eat my own fertile eggs, When I am hungry while laying the eggs, We, the gnats produce eggs within our body, When I am hatched within the body I devour my own parents. The parents die, the next generation lives. The sea is...

A Gnat
There was something about this place-- so terribly unknown, and though I fancied its mystery I felt so alone, an old abandoned dock, a shady-- house on a hill-- the same wardrobe of twill, in this city of stone. All the years, misplaced and dreary-- I notice the gnat, fluttering neath the window pane; it's wings timid and flat, how lucky that creature would-- someday...

Don't be afraid - no need for that Don't run away from Ogden Gnat You won't be his supper tonight He only wants to share the light This mosquito intends no harm He doesn't mean to cause alarm Around you he flies only to look At the funny poems in your book...
