Dear Stinkbug,
I feel like we are married.
We fight, you stink, I tear off one of your little legs, but in the end you fly away with one last little victory.
Or at least that's what you think.
In a few days, I will find your body on my floor like always.
It was fate that brought us together, but even fate couldn't save you from your own smell.

The author's comments:
Stinkbugs are invading my room. It angers me so much but when I try to get them they just fly away, leaving a leg or two behind and that awful stench!
