roach is an instigator
My pet roach and I got cozy tonight
Ready for dreamland, our bed took flight
Roach loves it when we glide into outer space
I keep silent, sleeping with breathless grace.
Roach tries to tell me scary stories later.
Pretending we almost fell down a shaft, an elevator.
His wild fabrications are supposed to give me awful nightmares.
I ignore instigating, so he runs off to tease grizzly bears.
