The Green P’tater

The Green P’tater

I saw a wasp carry
  an inchworm around,
And fed it into
  a hole in the ground,

She stung it with
  her waspy venom,
Not enough to kill,
  just enough to benumb

She laid her egg
  within its heart, and
Then she crawled out
  and did depart

She planted that worm
  like a green p’tater
For her grub to eat up
  when he hatches a bit later
