As a poet, I love moths. If I had wings, I would have theirs. However, after a months-long pantry moth invasion that took half of my pandemic stores and forced me to put out traps and throw them away once the glue was scattered with the panicked dust of soft silvery wings, I can hardly stand the sight of a moth.

#poem #poetry #spilled ink #spilled thoughts #pantry moths #did not want to put this in the regular moth tag because it is not fun and i think you go to the moth tag for moth based fun #i still like moths! but ahh it's gonna take a while before i like seeing them irl i think and it's a weird feeling #they are one of my favorite little creatures even when they are very dull and small normally but now i'm like my pantry how will i survive #the winter is this what my ancestors felt? when they saw pantry moths? it's bad!#and i don't like hurting the moths either but there's not a better way
