Ants As One – 26th August 2021

“There’s food in the distance, sir”
“Send some troops surveying
Send up the pheromone signal
Our army is obeying”
Through hell and high water
The march has begun
Survival of the greatest
An army that acts as one
Carrying the corpses
Of competing insect species
Food for the family nest
Of cockroaches and leeches
“Let’s move the camp inside
The rain is about to come”
No problem for the army
Of ants that act as one
The human sprays noxious
Chemicals to kill our eggs
“Gather together everyone
And bite him on the legs
Together we can take him down
That nasty human scum
We just got to stick together
Our army of ants as one”
