Not a Prayer Against the Mantis
Good Lord, Mama Mantis creeps
up behind and takes a nip
that stings sharp before I fall,
supposedly dead.
Fakeout! I still have my teeth
and I hear the words, "Bite me!
Wanting to give her a nip,
Alexa B.'s bit!

Science Report or Who Prays for the Mantis
Praying mantises, those arthropod thugs,
prey upon other, unfortunate, bugs,
"But who prays for the praying mantis?", I ask,
"And what lurks behind that killer's mask?"
After the males have fulfilled their function,
the females seem to lack compunction,
practicing sexual cannibalism, they say,
enjoying a nice meal after a roll in the hay.
While males consider this distasteful,
females say, "it's just not being wasteful".
Is the praying mantis truly mean and vile?
In the insect world, he stands on trial.
Speaking for aphids or ants or anything little,
I argue vigorously against acquittal.

Inquiring Mantis Brothers Want To Know
Is the African praying mantis as murderous as the others?
I do not know what to say to my terrified quivering brothers.
She lets you mate and then bites off your head.
I guess they wanted to hear something else instead.
