its been raining so much
even the ants have given up construction
forming thin flows of traffic
from a pinhole in the window sill
up the wall
across the ceiling
down the wall
over wire shelving
into an old shoebox of forgotten photographs
collecting dust in the corner of the closet
it took a destructive mindset
and cruel intentions for me to
follow them that far
but i overheard them mumbling
chit-chattering about the weather
bitch-grumbling about moving
so instead of killing them
i just let them suffer
