For now
I am the tightly twisted newspaper
Ruffed and ready
Expectant.

Ah yes, the houseflies! Even in the midst of winter somehow those little guys find their way into your life to 'bug' you! Love your poem and your sense of humor, Frank! Best Wishes, Marilyn

Tremendous title, enforced by the succinct yet oh so potent message. I have full appreciation for the sentiment behind this poem - especially in this weather! ! S :)

For now, I am one highly amused reader, prepped for your next, but definitely and quite thankfully, not expecting. Thank you for the smile and bit of joy this morning, Peace and harmony, L&T

Love it Frank. This one I burst out laughing. Love the tight edge of expectancy.
