Its started!

They say "If the meek will inherit the Earth."

It has started!

There are millipedes at my door

Aunts and uncles

Cousins and nieces

With their belongings

All waiting, crowding

Jumping the queue.

Then a bus-load of tourists

Rock up! The cockroaches

But the speed traps are in place

By the spiders on patrol, who pick em off;

One at a time; they hate queue jumpers!

Pushing and shoving some are crushed;

The red cross ants in rows

March through crowded streets

Taking carcasses away.

Deaths arising, a riot building, restless, impatient

Waiting to move in! They push, push!

Until they see ...high in the sky

Foreboding, menacing, red

A monument of Life versus death.

Calm and control restored

The crowd, once excited, stops..

Hurriedly disperses in fear.

The line has been drawn

The can of insecticide

Firmly planted

For all to see!!

The Owner speaks:

"Run you little critters!! Run! Run!!"

" You won't inherit this little piece..... well not yet!"

Psychotic laughter echoes through

A twisted grin, a crimson smile.

A smirk of display on red can's sprays!!      Whooosh! whoosh!!
