Don`t Bring It In
No lady bugs, no butterflies,
The bees have gone-
Even the grasshoppers.
All I see are ants.
Everywhere.
Now they enter my house
Somehow
In their determination
To sustain themselves
Through the drought.
Out! Out! Damned ants,
Remove yourselves
From my premises.
I cannot enjoy the outdoors.
Don't try to bring it in.
