Looking around

I see nothing but

Devastation.

Blood on the wall. 

Towering over

Squashed bodies line the

Floor.

Danger seems to disappear.

Warm sunlight

reminds me of my

Goal. 

Death isn't the plan.

Our job

is to bring back 

Food.

The nozzle attacks again.

A stream

of liquid cold and 

Toxic.

I stop at once.

Oh to

be a successful little

Ant.

A family gone quickly.

No one

to save us from

Monsters.

This life ends shortly.

HAPPY JUNE!!!

I typically write in the perspective of a human and because I was given this amazing first stanza by a friend {shoutout to Alexa!!!}, I wanted to put a little spin on things. It's very different that what I'm accustomed to writing but I hope you all enjoyed it too.  

~ Have you ever killed an ant?

Did you feel bad afterwards?

Sometimes I do.

Sending you all the good vibes,

D.O.
