Swarm Born

Beneath the city streets
Of a bleak dystopia
The drum of beating wings
Echo through pipes and halls

As above so below
The race of life never slowed
Decades to bathe in chemical waste
Insects grow at alarming rates
Parasitoid Apocrita
Begin to turn their gaze on us
To host their new larval brood
They gestate to pupate
And burst out from our husks

From the depths they come
To reap what we sowed
Blessed are the meek

Pincers clamp to subdue
They sting to immobilize you
Venom floods into your spine
To dull your mind
Their young bore inside to devour what they find
Vital organs for last to keep you alive

You can't scream but you feel everything
