Ants and Garlic

“We will not have the light to see

in the tunnels beneath the roots,”

said the ant wearing tennis shoes

to the ant wearing boots.

“Oh, do not fret about visibility,”

said the ant wearing boots,

“we’re two steps ahead of yous;

we’ve planned out our routes

Text within this block will maintain its original spacing when published

so that when below ground, indubitably,

we guide the whole of the troops

by the golden hues

emitted by glowing garlic bulb groups.”

Thanks for reading!
