The Invasion Poem by Holmes Jim

I watch from my porch, as they approach,
Crossing my lawn, they wilfully encroach,
A regiment of soldiers, confident and brave,
A full-on incursion, that pressed forth in waves,

An unstoppable force once on the move,
Marching as one, as they've trained to do,
They come with a purpose, without any fear,
To take what is due, that's abundantly clear,

I look upon them with an unsettling gaze,
And consider my options and silently pray,
Imagining the worst, the closer they get,
Facing alone, this imminent threat,

Mustering my courage, to repel the assault,
Knowing full well, that I'm truly at fault,
For I dropped those crumbs that lay at my feet,
Inviting these ants to stop by and eat.
