Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for September 02, 2020

My mother always said that mosquito’s like her better than my brother and i and dad.

Apparently it’s only the female mosquito that bites…

If there were only one mosquito in this city of one million, it would find me and bite me.

So do flies, Aunty, if you don’t shower before you hit the beach.

Blood suckers such as vampires and mosquitoes tend to be comrades.

If they have West Nile or encephalitis it could be a fatal attraction.

You’re a giant-sized, open-air buffet, Aunty!

Friends invite me on fishing trips because the mosquitos all focus on me.

They only want your blood.

You’re the main attraction.

I’ve never liked being Kissed by a Mosquito.
