Away! Away! you cursed, filthy fly!  
An invitation you did not receive  
inviting you, perchance, to happen by;  
So please, I ask you now to take your leave!

the cream yearns to be free of pesky pests  
the cold cuts still await the mustard seeds  
these cheeses are reserved for proper guests  
not passers by, according to their needs.
