Nothing to Declare

I promise I´ll move on to other topics soon. But this a.m. I hit snooze, rolled over, and found myself eye to eye with a gi-normous bug that had crawled up my covers. Who needs an alarm clock? I was out of bed in a second. I took a look at it - many long legs like a spider, narrow body like a grasshopper, and some kind of stinger-looking thing coming out the end of it. Then I turned around and left the room. I may eventually come to accept bugs. I may have to. But not before I´ve had coffee.
