Our first truck of household goods arrived yesterday! The door was open all day. A stray critter found its way in. I always take them back outside to their own home, except I became super pooped. So I scooped it into the nearest bag, still alive, to take out when the bag would be filled. As luck would have it, it ended up in a bag filled with food scraps...
Tiny Bug
Super tiny bug in a super-sized room
Caught in a dust pan swept away with a broom
Dumped in the trash wanting to escape
Until catching the aroma of a discarded grape
Now he's thinking rent-free and smorgasbord
Living in the garbage has its own reward
