Heaven is My Horse Fly (V2)




A common horse fly
peripatetic traveler

vacationing in my world

into my bathroom,

(ride me cowboy, fly)

it’s summer time -

lands on my toilet seat

pit stops at Nikki’s Bar & Grill,

kitty litter box, refuels.

Thirteen round trips

buzzing my skin and skull -

he calls them “short runs.”

Steady pilot, good mileage,

frequent flier credits.

I swat his war journey,

splat, downed, then, an abrupt end.
