TEXAS, MY TEXAS
NO WHERE TO RUN
NO WHERE TO HIDE
Before I even set foot on the soil of my hometown, I was on high alert.
I was on the look-out for them, remembering how fierce they were when I lived here.
Initially, there was no sign of them.
I thought I had gotten away with it!
After all, I had been there since Friday and nothing had happened.
Still, I expected them to find me, sooner or later.
This town was too small for them not to realize I was back!
Friday passed.
Nothing.
Saturday passed.
Nothing.
Sunday…
Oh, they found me and when they found me they came at me with a vengeance!
They reveled in their assault.
I was helpless, could do nothing to stop it or them.
The marks of their attack remain with me to remind me of their unrelenting taste for fresh blood.
Dang Mosquitos!
