They take small bites

They
take
small bites
siphoning
bigger drops each night
growing addicted to his soul

The mosquito knows full well, small as he is
he's a beast of prey.
But after all
he only takes his bellyful,
he doesn't put my blood in the bank.

-D.H. Lawrence

apologies, but that's where you took me, intentionally or not.

No apologies necessary... it's a good place to be taken.
