There's always flies around. The pests are irremovable from our lives. We can hardly imagine it without them. They cross us all the time – and this time it changed you. It carved it's way into you with its feather-light touch. Its eggs are incubating under your skin. The way it bulges and blushes around the irritated area. It itches, but you try to not run your nails over it. You know it runs the risk of infection every time you scratch and you suffer through the agony of not scratching – it burns and screams in your mind, the simple solution glowing before you. With all your restraint, it gets infected anyway. It bleeds milky puss. It leaks a sticky yellow. Almost opaque, but not quite. Is it the maggots within? Or your nails? Your body in protest? All you know is that it is irritated, it is protesting and so are you. You are at war with the parasite eating away at you. It bulges more, tiny little pockets of life under your skin – until they burst and the tiny irritants worm free. They leave behind a myriad of holes, glowing and bleeding. You are stuck with it.
