Mosquitoes

Slapping my arms angrily.

Everyone watching me, I feel stupid.

As my hands shake, I can’t stop.

My body has a mind of its own,

and the bites need to be itched.

I visibly cringe as a mosquito buzzes

Past my ear, scoping out its next victim.

I pray silently that it isn’t me.

I’ve had enough.

I hate mosquitoes.

Buzz, it flies past my ear, buzz.

Hope they go extinct.
