A midnight fight.

Lying in bed,
Cussing 'n' fretting,
Can't sleep so I decide, That thing must dead.
Time to fight.
Leap from me netting,
Switch on the light,
Back in me bed,
Look!
Look!
Iz full an' fat.
Clap-clap
A big red *SPLAT*.

I always scron that "red splat". Very creative piece.

Hey, can you remember a long time ago the Ministry of Health was giving away medicated mosquito nets to persons living in the rural areas. It was an initiative done to reduce the Malaria in those areas. [hmmm I sound like a GINA reporter]

I hear them good fuh people like me who does always brace the net.

CG, I busted this one before HE got me...yes, all mosquitoes are HE, not she.

Sab, I have a collection of splats, I treasure them :-D

Isleman, my record is 4 at one splat.

Stolid, you should hear my mother talk about malaria, she had it as a child.

Jdid, you just jealous, try beating my record, 4 at once.

Cloud, beat 'em all at once...borasic powder mixed with some sugar in a lid on the floor...when they eat it, they die.

Raptus, I LOVE that splat, the splatter the better.
I never heard of that mosquito net, if it kills 'em I want one.

Kofi Conde said...

Lol...and I killed a bug myself today. For shame!

Guyana-Gyal said...

Kofi, as long as it wasn't a lady-bug, you know those red ones with black dots, I haven't seen any in ages.

Exotic, you's just jealous, you and KFM, you want to squash big, juicy mossies too.

KFM, you mean, go to sleep with the smell of that stuff in my room? Nah.

Pat, you're missing half the fun, tee hee.

Guyana-Gyal said...

I just squashed a GALUPTIOUS-HUGE mosquito.

Oh joy :-D

Hayden said...

I keep finding mosquitos in the house here... pale, small, weak, not interested in dining on moi. And huge black flies Jake and I are always trying to kill.

Screens in all of the windows, too. No idea how they're getting in. Runnin' from the cold, probably.

Lady bugs? Millions of those, too. Must catch several a day and take them back outside. Some other kinda' beetle, too.

sigh. they're welcoming me to farm life.
