Love, one-sided


Here’s that black thing
attacking my nose from
the air, trying to sit down
on my arm, hand, foot,
thigh, my food – particularly
my food

Loves me so much
it can’t and won’t 
leave me alone

And here I am with
nothing but murder
in my mind

But way too slow
for execution

– Leonard Blumfeld (© 2026)

Note
Once again nothing but the prosaic truth turned into poetry. This one-sided love story has been going on for four days now. Ever since this specimen flew in through an open door and simply refuses to leave.
