I am distracted
But not because my instinctive response is to scream
Or seek higher ground
(Such as a chair or tabletop)
When confronted by an intruder such as this one or its kin
Nah
My instinct is to squash it like the bug it is
This time, however, the intruder is allowed to live to crawl another day
Because its invasion occurs during a therapy session
And I am pretty sure there is no way springing from my chair
And squashing a bug while my client is in mid-word
Can be considered a therapeutic response
