An Ant Crawling Across My Kitchen Floor After a Terrible Experience 2018

04:27

Ants had infested my house multiple times in the weeks leading up to this event, and every time I had purged the place of them, they came back a few days later to taunt me. It became this running-joke. After this incident with my friend, it was 3AM, and I was sat in my kitchen. I had gotten rid of the ants a few days before, and they were out of mind. I looked at the floor, and saw this single ant crawling aimlessly in the middle of the room, as if it was taunting me, an omen for another infestation. The ant in this moment became both an affirmation of my emotional state in representing the complete opposite of what I was feeling, humour, and a tiny vessel, into which I could pour my troubles.
