Macro Monday

 
 
 
House Fly
 
Germs, germs everywhere,
      Thousands stuck on every hair.
Swat that fly
No one will care.
 
Hunt that fly
You silly cat.
Swat him, eat him
Smash him flat.
 
But he's God's creature
Don't you know.
Treat him kindly,
Just let him go...
 
Are you kidding?
Aren't you aware?
He spreads diseases
 Everywhere ...
 
Swat that fly.
No one should care ...

Brilliant shot, brilliant poem. Thank you. I do try not to kill anything. Except perhaps mosquitoes.

Wow, what a great macro! You show off the intricate detail of a creature so common I almost overlook him :)
