Bug in the Garage, a poem by Adam Common

It is such 
a thing to be the thriving
bug in the garage once 
autumn has come.
They hear me 
chirp 
and chirrup, 
but I cannot be found.
I cry 
out in the night, 
in the dark, come for me,
touch me. 
Hold me so that my voice might turn 
quiet,
that I go the way of my kind, 
out there,
in the world of rain & wind,
so that heaviness 
might 
take me away from 
this hole in the ground
And bring me to something 
better.
