Ant

Ant

A Poem by zainul
"

Upset by the horror caused by ants that plundered into my computer

"
Ants are moving inside my computer monitor
I feel helpless where to find an exterminator

What the humans have done to the ant community
Why they come in groups to attack our property
Who is responsible to invite this menace
How can we get rid of such penance

Ants plundered our sugar and bread
They damaged clothing by eating thread
They eat flowers and roots of plants in the garden
They carry away food of pets and human
They bite and inject painful formic acid
I wonder why they have so much greed 

I am totally upset by this tiny vermin
It has conspired to stop my writing

ants are to be admired for their communal lifestyle and their strength and intelligence. now, that being said..i worked for a major pest control company for 4 years. here is what to do. go out to the feed and seed or dept store and find something called "terro" ant traps. they will find it, feed on it, take the poison back to the queen and that will destroy the whole colony. that is the only way!!!!

Lol this is an amazing poem, and most of the time I hate ants as well, but we must wonder if humans are any different from ants. We plunder the world just as they do taking even more than they do, because we don't just take the things we need to survive we take items for luxury. Imagine if you were an ant. You would probably write the same poem about humans.

Undoubtedly this is a great poem. It shows how the tiniest things can cause a large amount of damage. Well done!! Keep writing!!! :)

INTRODUCTION

The first two lines are the following:

1. Entrancing
2. Witty
3. Clever.

BODY

WHAT I LIKED:

1. Rhyme Scheme
2. Biological References
3. Frustration Outlet
4. Vocabulary.
5. The Final Quote

The rhyme scheme gives it a lyrical and witty voice to the poem.
The biological references to the "ant" community gives it "Realism."
The frustration outlet allows anger to be expressed appropriately.
The vocabulary displays intelligence and imagery.
The final quote teases the reader; making us want more.

CONCLUSION

1. It gave me a chuckle.
2. I share your frustration.
3. Nature is fun.

I understand this completely! I have a love/hate relationship with ants. I respect that they are living creatures but they annoy the life out of me. I enjoyed the descriptive way you wrote this. Very nice!
