So Many Legs

One line poetry: crawl

On paper
my apartment
has an occupancy of one
(me)

but in reality
it houses all the creepy crawlies
and yet even more legs.

Thank you to Fọlábòmí Àmọ̀ó for the prompt: crawl, which inspired me to write about my cohabitants. We live mostly in harmony now. Mostly.
