There is a damn little fly in my house
(worse than a mouse)
He likes to buzz around and land on me
It is driving me nuts.
Not only that but the dog is whining to go out
(twenty five times a day)
That is probably how the damn little fly got in
when I opened the door for my senile dog.
I really shouldn’t complain
He is not the biting kind that harassed me
on past vacations at the lake
I have misquotes for that thank you
(they got me last night and I spent the whole
evening scratching)
But he is annoying
this damn little fly
And besides landing on my skin and walking around
he is too fast for me
Flies away before I can swat him.
Don't worry I will get him
or perhaps he will leave when I let the dog out again

This was a fun way to deal with the pesky little critter.
We name our random flies "Homer" and try to consider them random pets. It makes us smile and obviates the need to exterminate them.
Nice to have found your poetry, Jay.
