Battle for the Concrete Mesa

Armies of Junes
are drawn to the Concrete Mesa
they come in March, so they May
be enlightened, nightly

But the Lord of this slab of land
a spartan soul fighting ten thousand immortals
with Babe Ruth swings of a witches flying tool
hundreds of June bugs meet their doom

They overwhelmed the army of one,
his defenses crumbled, strategy chanced
emerging with new tactics of an innovative weapon
blowing the Junes away with a blower of yards

At dawn, the battle will begin again
as many as the Persian army at Thermopylae
will March, till May, the Junes, to;
battle for the concrete mesa

One of those fun writes of the battle with the elements — in the end, bugs win.

Bug light

Creatively different. I love the images. Here hundreds of years later, we face a different and less lethal enemy, bugs instead of men with swords.

Me? I'd buy a bug light but they attract more than they kill.

I loved your poem. It made me think.
