I liked this very much, but especially so with added Van Gogh
The Art of Living
I had slept
Without a mosquito net
On my first day in the new city
Did I say slept?
That isn’t even an exaggeration
That’s an utter lie
The room, the cot, the night, the sounds
The earth itself
May have slept
Me and the mosquitoes didn’t
We fought
And I was not deadly bruised
I was totally mauled
The next morning saw me
At the nearest mall
Searching for a mosquito net
Then on every night
I would spread the mosquito net
Over my bed stead
And by that time
All the mosquito’s in the room
Would be inside it
Happily I would close the net
Insert all the corners under the bed
And sleep on the floor
