Mosquito larva

In blind zigzag you swim

York devoured,

Others you must sink your teeth into

O… where went your mother

 

Father we know don’t care

Further and beyond swim so dare.

Dark and light, earth rotates

Difference seen in fishy-lake;

 

As wings emerge, gills kept are lost

Lake you must leave or dwell in risk

For hunters now hunted…. But;

In blind kinks your kinds shall swim.
