Floaters
D G Williford

Floaters

I see them. What do they want from me?
A dark flash in the corner of my eye

They torment me with their constant attacks
Their oiled and feathered wings
Swooping just out of my grasp

I am reading a book
And they decide to play

I am cleaning the toilet
And they barrage me with their rancid breath and crooked fangs

When I take a shower they slither in the door and watch me
Waiting for me to be caught unaware
So they can grab my throat and tear it open with their dirty claws

I can hear them breathing as they lay on my bathroom rug
It is an ancient breath, a greedy breath, an angry breath


I was reaching for the faucet when the attack came
