FLEAS, FLEAS, FLEAS

Fleas, Fleas, Fleas Why on earth
Have these buggers
Been allowed to be?
Such funky looking
Wee, biting things
Burrowing in the
Warmth of hairy follicles
Of the unaware being
Until the urge to itch
And scratch like mad
Poor doggies and cats
From flea collars,
Prescription meds
To over-the-counter
Tubes of stuff
Sonar devices ‘n’ sprays
Medicated shampoo
To the kill-the-flea bottle
Misery rules along with
Constant licking in
Trying to rid these
Bothersome, pesky fleas!
