The Fly and The Swatter

SMACK!!!

Heat rose from my face with a quickness

Failed hopes burn into my left cheek

And still I check to see if it's there

Son of a....

An escape artist I see

You dare play with deaths hand

But yet you can't escape deaths door

From which you entered at your own expense

So tell me, what are your dealings here?

Or should I go ahead and speed dial fate?

...buzz.......

Interesting...

Well, "Fly"

Could care less, "You have 5 hours left"

The hour is nigh!

And I'm summoning my finest swatter

....buzz....

So primitive

A years old trick that keeps being dusted

Bribery was left in the commode and I haven't given a dun since

I swinged and swatted

And swatted and swinged

Til swinging became swaying

And swatting became, just breathing

6 legs pent firmly against the smoked layered wall

Yet the final blow did not satisfy

Where is the next of keen?!

If one, there's many....but where?

From the stairs poured a coalsack with wings beating at an 100mph

They moved so simultaneously as though they were one entity

A wave begins to form

Must and dew filled the air that followed behind

I need a bigger swatter.....
