Dont lick a wasp

a reflection by inky

I’ve always preferred Bees to wasps

and there’s a very good reason why

Bees when they sting – its a last resort

they’d much more evade you and fly

And while bees try their best to get away

The wasp cannot be called “chilled”

as it darts at great speed with its stinger

to deliver and alkaline spill

Their hives – you couldn’t call “useful”

a home to lay eggs – that is all

unlike bees who storing their honey

in each of the cells of their wall

And as bees throw their lives for defences

the wasps its all attack at speed

and you spending your time with vinegar

hoping the wasp sting doesn’t bleed

So the moral of the story – dont anger the wasp

licking it’s a task not to try

you’ll be best to try and destract it

and watch – as away it will fly
