they tried to move in.
the screen blocked their
access into my house, the
house that I paid for.
i reminded them that they
did not pay the mortgage,
or the city taxes, nor the heating
bill, or even for the landscaping
that they seem to enjoy.
they were angry; through the
binoculars they looked like
angry scorpions, their pincers
working against the screen
which separated them from their
compatriots inside.
Finally, as the sun sunk low
on the horizon and the night chill
moved in, their energy dissipated,
no doubt tomorrow they will
return energized, as will I.
