'' That Bluebottle Is Now My Best Friend ''
The bluebottle buzzed as it flew overhead,
Its very presence filled me with dread,
I had to ensure it ended up dead,
It was driving me round the bend.
I followed it around newspaper in hand,
Ending its life is what I had planned,
For my sanity I'd to make a stand,
The parasites life would soon end.
Just at that moment as I drew near,
It's gory details became crystal clear,
God knows how but it smelled my fear,
It's aeronautics I had to commend.
As I drew closer it just flew away,
How it knew my intention I couldn't say,
My superior intelligence didn't hold any sway,
My best efforts it managed to fend.
When it landed again I took a swipe,
This was my chance the time was ripe,
As I flew off the chair I hit a pipe,
Soon the plumber would have to attend.
The wifes treasured flower vase fell to the floor,
What remained I knew I could never restore,
When she found out I'd be shown the door,
My tactics I'd have to amend.
I thought this is it I'm on a mission,
So I read the fly killers latest edition,
After an hour of studious tuition,
Depravity is what I now intend.
Soon there was flooding on a massive scale,
I had to kill it I could not fail,
Of devastation there was a massive trail,
My incompetence I couldn't defend.
Now in my speedos death at the ready,
By now the floor was like an eddy,
As I took aim while trying to stay steady,
Into chaos I did descend.
The fly spray blew right into my face,
For fresh air and water I had to race,
The fly then vanished without a trace,
This I did not comprehend.
When the boss came home within a second,
She gave me exactly what I'd reckoned,
I knew immediately disaster beckoned,
My character did she condescend.
The moral of my story is we all have a life,
If something's annoying you, to ease your strife,
Treat all living creatures as you'd treat the wife,
That is what I'd recommend.
Now when I hear the bluebottle fly,
I think of the past and it makes me cry,
They deserve to live, not to die,
