buzz all day at the windows
no end of pane

blows mosquitoes from their goal
my life blood saved

Rest-less

in bed with a fly
its constant buzz in my ear
saws at my patience

Buzz Off!

too friendly fly
wanders across sleeper’s brow
tangles threads of a dream

Box Elder Beetle

your long legs tapping
across my computer screen
death-defying dance
