Pill bug

small

roll roll roll,

over bark

leaves

roots.

Little bug, lost bug

hiding from the sun

under rocks stones logs,

a surprise

when you flip them over.

Hello, bug.

Let me get out of your way

maybe I am bigger

than you

but,

to you,

I am the insect,

invasive, ignorant

you have places to be.

Put the rock back

deep dark damp

goodnight, goodbye bug

I am glad

I crossed

your path.
