pleaseplease
please please
please
please please
don’t just tell me
what I want to hear.
I can not bear
to hear it

earwig sitting harmlessly
on speaker tops but how
I wish
it’d crawl under my skin
and make it’s way,
it’s harmless way,
directly in to the brain
where it would feast
just like the aliens
in some made-for-
T-V- Sc-Fi
movie.
