what does it pay to be a mud wasp laborer?
this one here must be doing pretty well
has a nice winter home up high on the roof beam
and a small summer villa down the wall by the floor
either way
an easy flight back and forth
place to self-built place
no panic threats of rain
not much of a sharp draft
and outside the gated doors
a scenic view of the playground
i bet the children
when they come
won’t feel the sting
of poorer bugs
