Zinging and slinging past my ear,
seeping the calm right out of my soul.
A conspiracy.
Flashing and clapping hands
to beat to a pulp nothing
but the skin of the beater;
a room filled with smoke of a destroyer,
destroying only human lungs,
choking the life out of them,
as those little rascals continue
to zing and sling past my ear.

Johnson's has an anti-mosquito liquid for babies that works real well on adult skin. :-D You'll still hear them zinging but for a couple hours you should remain bite-free.
I have developed a new level of hatred for the creatures!!! And I hate smoke so I am reluctant to light a destroyer...and having those at work is not an option. So I try to kill with my hands-dry or wet (though wet is better).
