That's awesome! In an "I-pity-the-fly" way. You've definitely caused a reaction, and it's a really good point that you're making. Who would have thought that flies were such good examples for the rest of us?

It's bothering me a bit that you assume that people just swat flies due to annoyance. I'll be an annoying know-it-all and point out that there are some species of flies that cause very serious diseases (I believe that the tsetse would be a key example?) and others that bite painfully. Perhaps you could clarify that it's a house fly that you're talking about?

interesting... very true... a great point.. very unique idea... well done

this is a really cool poem.

nice job.

wow.

interesting point.

i totally love this

what a way to look at things, if only

some of those melodramatic people

could look things through this point of view...

keep writing

don't flies also vomit on whatever they land on though? and that's super gross. but still, i get what you're saying. maybe we are all too sensitive. but where would we be if we wouldn't. seriously, sometimes the drama is enough to live off of. sweet style.

humorous in a way...

nice...
