Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Bite the Biter

"Good night - don't let the bed bugs bite."
My Grandma would say that to me
Then these bugs disappeared from sight,
Thanks to the stuff like DDT.
But DDT got banned and so
The bed bugs have returned once more.
They showed up in my bed. Oh no!
In jars I scooped 'em by the score.
Exterminators had to come,
And used heat to kill the whole lot.
Then I read bugs could be yum yum.
So I baked the bugs I had caught.

Bed bugs bit me, so I bit back.
They really are a tasty snack.
