I swung a magazine in a speeding blaze,
and killed five houseflies in three days.
My statistics are good, and for my money,
I'm better than Shohei Ohtunny.
Husband killed eight houseflies,
four males and four females he said.
How come you knew!? His wife asked
Males were on sugar females on the mirror
That was his simple reply.
The day dawns arid and dry,
even the houseflies refuse to come out.
Whatever shall the old uncles do
to count the minutes until sunset?
It really doesn’t matter much,
it’s ashes to ashes; dust to dust.
Three fireflies arrested on suspicion of arson
Two horseflies galloped of into the sunset
A butterfly landed lightly on the toast
The houseflies awaited the delivery from Door Dash
The dragonfly went out for a Knight on the town
The May fly may not
This risen churlish cold
all cove like
lost in the rigging
crying out the humour
to dance the green lithe of light
as a figment of your mind
The inconsolables retain
lost memories flight
Winters club bastioned to the driving winds
Daffodils espied amongst the houseflies
once prudent pierce their aching hearts
The sky--
black treacle trapped in tar pits
dripping from a mastiff's jowls, or
one thousand million foolish houseflies
drowning in a single paper trap, maybe
a sprawling anti-Elysia, the hunting ground
for our shadows to roam while we sleep.
A well built by some sweaty, laboring God
that we merely see the bottom of.
But what matters of its dark?
A sky stretches out untouchable
and cares not what lies beneath.
My circle is of
fruitflies, houseflies, mosquitos
squirrels, chipmunks, possums
spiders, crickets, ants
parakeets, seagulls, geese
This dance is absent without you
hair, glasses, smile
shirt, pants, shoes
laugh, giggle, talk
Together we were one
hugs, handholding, cuddles
rollerblading, bicycling, racquetball
car rides, lighthouses, kayaking
fishing, dinners, parenting
