Day 225: “Bugs on the Bus”


I hate seeing bugs stuck on the bus

They bang their little bodies against every window looking for a way out


I just wish I could whisper to them to be patient

And move toward the door

We’ll be there soon


Instead they’re frantic

Flapping away

Smacking into the windows again and again


If it’s not this window,

It must be that one

They can see outside

Why can’t they get there?


I’ll say one thing

They’re very persistent

I’ve never seen one give up
