The ants and my half cashew ..
Ants I know are tiny and creepy
Yesterday,they invaded my life
Crawling next, over and under me
And this is a true horror story
I woke up on what felt
Iike noise .. but it was not..
I couldnt see until next to it I knelt
And here it was my poor half nut …
Ants are munching my half cashew
Fifty of these bustards or so
Flocks of hairy bare feet came through
Some walking and some even flew
I am not so clear,
What triggered the lunacy in me
Frenzy outburst and I could hear
Screams and shouts of a deadly spree
Poor ants squashed by my giant feet
Frantically chasing them like my enemies
I must have crushed some black heads
Gutted some, and some managed to flee
Next morning ..
I looked down to where I left the scene
Unease swept me of my feet
fathers, mothers and aunts of ants ,
I must have flushed also a queen..
Flushed away dismembered ants and half cashew ,
I could see, with no more ants on nuts to chew,
So triumphant and full of glee ..
the only debris left was me …

This was super fun to read!
thank you Moon for the comment .. for me the fun was in the writing .. yet the feelings were anger fading into sadness …
Aw… is it because you killed the ants?
I felt lonely without the ants .. and I did kill my last companions… sad isn’t it ….
until the kids come from vacation !!!
Ha! Sounds like a tragicomdey! I have crazy little tiny ants running around my kitchen counter… They annoy my mother. I’m kind of OK with them, until they get in my food!
