A fly invited itself into my home.
I tried to hook a mask around its face.
It swerved my attempts.
I tried to explain how irresponsible it was being.
I printed out graphs and charts.
Slapped away at them with my telescopic pointer.
Explained how it wasn't just risking our lives, but thousands more.
Briefly I felt important.
The fly landed on one of my graphs.
I could feel it.
It was trying to undermine me.
