A tiny buzz beside my ear
nagging that will soon be squashed into blood in my palms

A tiny buzz beside my ear
Nuisance that won’t let sleeping dogs lie
even after killing it, my mind still replayed

the tiny buzz beside my ear
nagging that has been squashed into blood

    Benji, I like how the mosquito’s buzz stays in your mind even after you kill it, making a tiny pest feel strangely powerful.

      Thank you ♥️David♥️🙏😊

      Mosquitoes can be very annoying especially when you’re left with them in a dark room…they’ll never let you sleep in peace especially the male ones that buzz in the ears

    Mosquitoes are deserving for this fate.

      Especially during those hot nights when you cannot help and an orchestra of mosquitoes keep you annoyed and further awake 😀

        So true. I use the coil that emits an anti mosquito smoke.
