Mosquito Lament

Sometimes I slip into words and just write when I feel a little blue
When I am tired and just cranky ~ sometimes I can feel them soothe.
But not today, they can't and won't.  I fear I just need some rest.
I really tried to sleep last night, but a mosquito was a pest.
It buzzed about my head so fast and I knew it would take a bite
I lay and waited as I read, finally turning on all the lights.
I could not get it.  I really tried.  It began to make me really mad.
The dogs ran and hid under the bed thinking they were bad.
It didn't end and I didn't sleep and now my head is filled with cotton.
I keep on thinking I'll wake up; but the day's over and my mood is rotten.
I am going soon and I will get my book and lay upon my bed.
I will read and just relax and while trying to clear my head.
But if I hear one little bug, I know I will go insane!
I just want to rest and get some sleep and let time recharge my brain.

lol, can relate to this one
and even if you buy a net
there's always one that gets under it
that has an agenda

Such a nice "bug" write, aziza! It really is a nice work.
