The large beady eyes
The yucky slimy skin
The disturbing churp you hear……even in the city
The ability to leap a body length within seconds
Myth of causing warts if one touches you
And they seem to camouflage with their background
They hang out on bathroom windows
Watching your every move
Waiting for the opportune moment to jump on you
To stick out that long sticky tongue
And catch it next unexpected prey
Poor fly, never had a chance
