Poem -
Japanese hornets
Like 6 Pin it 1Aluminium cansย
Squashed neatly
In the recycling binย
ยReminiscent ofย
Japanese hornetsย
Rapping their heads
On the honeycombยThey rap so loud....
I can't stand the din!
Vicious and ravenousย
A foreign body gestatesย
From within....This bloodline is cursed
Doomed like the Russian submarine
The KurskPressure building steadilyย
No cure or rememedyย
Imploding gently...Giving up like a buttercupย
To the harsh frost of springย

Thanks Nigel
Very interesting writing. Although not mentioned, I feel strong Covid 19 parallels in this x
Yes I picked up on that too, and I think "cans crushed neeatly" is a perfect description for isolation. A timely write.ย
Hi Christina and Al, yes there is definitely a Covid 19 theme in there. Cans crushed neatly is also an unintended metaphor for isolation. I hadn't given that much thought, thanks for pointing that out.
Stay safeย - Sydย
Great short piece and resonates the situation the world is dealing with today.
Thank you Pratibha, I'm glad you enjoyed the poem.
Take careย - Sydย
