An out side story that I've given poetical ? life- hope you enjoy.



A Fly Swat

Hey! There Mister Henry, What’s that noise in there?
Almost sounds like gunshots , who you tryin to scare?

I’m killing off mosquitoes, not tryin to scare no one,
This fly flap’s kinda noisy, but I think I’m done,

Good, the TV sound is bad and you ain’t helpin any
If you’re already done, there couldn’t be that many,

Only five , three females and two males , I think I got’em all,
I almost missed the last one, but I saw her fall,

Henry you’re gittin looney, you’ve lost half your deck,
There’s no way that you could tell a mosquitoe’s sex,

My Dear, my reason tells me that’s where you’re clearly wrong,
I’ve been killin mosquitoes way before you came along,

It’s kinda red neck science that I learned all alone,
The two males were on the beer cans, the three females on the phone!

A great laugh! If I have my real science correct, I believe it is only the females that suck blood. So, if you find that a mosquito lands on your most valuable body part to suck blood, you can rest assured that it is a female. ;-)
