i
just a fly
on the ceiling
love you
below
with strongest
feeling
i can't tell
when I'm
upside down
is that a smile
or is that
a frown?
i must
give you
a gentle kiss
and hope
your swatter
will maybe miss
oh me
oh my
too late
to wonder why
'you wouldn't hurt a fly'
was a lie
or incorrectly said
for now I'm nearly dead
'cause you wacked me on the head
ack!
what is that?
dignity in death
I lack
when I am eaten
by your cat...
