No-see-ems
Here
There
They’re everywhere
On the rafters
In the walls
Hanging in the air
Praying for your downfall
Catch them if you dare
There is no truce
No second chances
Fate is ever sealed
The moment you arrived within
You signed the devil’s deal
They know if you’re adopted
If a parent was unfaithful
They’ve tasted your entirety
With blood they’re never wasteful
They relish in your agony
Those silent deadly stabbers
You’ve covered up best you can
Yet nothing for their daggers
They come in swarms by nightfall
I suggest you try to hide
Come to exterminate the beasts
They’ll exterminate your pride
The worst part of the job
They’re invisible by nature
You can’t kill all of them
Not even one creature
They do not come from Florida
Though in truth they know it well
They come special delivery
From a special place called Hell
