A chapter in the book Worlds

Fly World 6

by Bill Schott


The family of flies had heard the terrible tales
of the fatal fog at Frenchbread Farm;
Never in all of their days, however,
had they thought it would do them harm.

Stories of the goriest fly altercations,
the grounds all littered with carcasses;
like tales of lore when the first flies to these shores
were decimated by fly-eating sharkasses

But on to Frenchbread Farm they will soar,
no fear of the fog will deter them;
into the breach to find rotting meat,
and perhaps some nice, juicy, green phlegm.

If the journey should fail and the swarm not return,
a new buzz may praise the fly guys who tried,
but you, dear reader, can celebrate now,
because all of those stinking flies died.
