Foreigners have invaded this body I borrow Set up house in various rooms I can hear them deciding on furniture They came in the dark Uninvited They’re cowering in the corners, conferencing arguing over Glidden ® colors But I’ve got a secret of my own
I’m planning a big surprise party in their honor Wait ‘til they see the light I hang! It will completely ruin their decor
Tami, I love this poem. Super metaphors. And, yes, light is the answer. Terrific terrific terrific! ... Jerelyn

a borrowed body, then might you be a visitor too, or maybe a bit self-deluded, only thinking about turning onthe light but never will. Or maybe its the obvious anology.
Giggle. I do so agree with Candy. This is a strong case of bad ass to the little invaders of our bodies. Your strength and emotions shine in this heartfelt piece Tami. Nice work.
May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

Awesome! I was just talking with someone about visitors last night! the graphic is quite profound....It's good to read you again, how've you been?
Brilliant, Tami... I can sure relate to this 100%, whether it be uninvited germs, toxins, thoughts, fears... or whatever. Turning the light on them will certainly upset their plans and bring them down to size! And bless you for all your thoughtful messages of support and comfort on my recent work. I am deeply appreciative. TY Kate xx

Positive approach to warding off the bugs. Nice write. R

Yikes! This is a truly cool combination of levels and humor AND complexity... rolled into my head as my jaw dropped, Tami. What a trickster you are, yet I knew I was in the company of very smooth poetry. Really somethin'
