The ants in our kitchen

The ants in our kitchen
walking round and round
wondering what to do,
what would E.O. Wilson think?

Sugar ants and carpenters
all finding treats
across the counter
heading for the sink

Little crumbs, drops of Kool-aid
or maybe Hi-C
a splash, a spill
of someone’s last drink

There long before us
the colonies must be quite large
not knowing how to act,
what would E.O. Wilson think?
