taterbug bugs

Here is a trial run for input on Taterbug
Is something bugging you?

Is Something Bugging You?

By James E. Tate © 1994

 

Roaches in the kitchen,

ants are in the den.

Crickets in the parlor,

 flies are swarming in.

Oh, what is the solution? 

Won't you tell me what to do?

With all of this pollution

 it has got me in a stew.

 

I called a pest controller

just to hear what he would say.

Said he'd be right over

 at the break of day.

A roach the size of Texas

 chased him down the hall,

and sent this nimble Okie

 scrambling up a wall.

 

The guy was most terrific,

 and he really had a ball.

He almost went ballistic,

 holes are in the wall.

The bugs were most prolific,

 but he had some clever tricks.

Not so scientific

 for he killed them with some bricks!
