Fly on the Wall

Fly on the Wall

A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

You never know...

"
The fly on the wall
He saw it all,
His peepers are small, it's true 
But his eyes never lie
And his memory's spry ~
And now he's got something on you!

this poem made me think of the janitor in Breakfast Club...how he said he was the eyes and ears of the school..he was everywhere and had so much on all these kids..:)

the fly does too, and if he doesn't get swatted first, he may tell.
