[who moi]

alrighty, try to bear with me or horse with me about this for a sec...

Something that David wrote about the mosquito have been making me think...in a serious way...

that the mosquitos get a bad rap...tis true....

yes, they are ugly and nasty creatures but they are needed in this world...they provide foods to bats and birds and they are good distraction whenever I run out of things to talk about..heckit, in the past I even wrote a song about mosquitos that has become an inside joke between moss and me...

back to the bad rap....

suicide gets a bad rap...well, it IS bad...it is awful...but the RAP itself is preventing a lot of folks from talking about it, it is hushing people up about it...because it is an ugly and nasty subject...

the one thing that I've noticed is the amount of talents that come to post here...not just at SOS forum but at NT...

perhaps, we can write a story about a struggling mosquito...let it take us where it may...I was tempted to layout a story line but I shall restrain that and just let it flow...

the other purpose that I am hoping it would serve, is a bit of a distraction...

suicidal thoughts is one that one can get obsessed about and dwell on...a distraction is greatly needed sometimes...

surviving suicides of others is probably even more damning, dwelling on the guilts and what if's....

perhaps, something to get all of our creative juices flowing can help create a nice distraction if and when need be....

and hopefully...fun...

I guess I'll start...

thanks for the inspiration, DMACK and my moss (who sings my stupid mosquito song with me...LOL)

New York isn’t bad at times, and I really like Duchamp’s
But it’s not much fun when you holiday alone
Finding food is difficult, so you do it on your own

I don’t really mean to bother humans, or to bleed you people dry
But without a daily shot of Rhesus- neg, I’m sure I’m going to die.
I know that I am a nuisance, I am sure that I’m a pest
So cover up and use your creams, and let me try my BEST.

Think of a pest, one that’s worse than the rest
One that gets under your vest, and skulks in a nest

One that hides in the wings, and then bites when it stings
One that hides in the crowd then pounces out loud.

Think of a pest that could cause you to die
And enjoys showing off when it flies in the sky.

Think of that net that might cost a few bucks!
Imagine the pain without one?? It sucks!

Think of the sprays and the creams, you use to fend off
Prepare to protect, and let the others just scoff.

Because whilst you sit in the sun, enjoying your Burrito’s
Some unprepared fool, is being eaten by Mosquitoes’

ps taliking frankly...............mosquitoes get a rough ride in life dont they...lol
