I killed a bug
I killed a bug
I think it could fly
But, it didn’t
It was walking across the table
One pass of my index finger
It was no more
I killed a bug
Without a thought
Without washing my hands
Without blinking
Between breaths
I ended it
I killed a bug
What species? I don’t know
Could it sting me? No
Was it in the way?
Maybe so, but
It’s dead
I killed a bug
