This poem about ant-lion along with poet's note is so interesting! I did not know its English name.I had also seen and played with this insect in my childhood.We called it in Odia, 'Gunduri Poka'.

Brilliant depiction on how a predator trap its prey. A well crafted write.

Lovely wonderful poem, Ron. I used to play as a kid with these, but without those angles, if I am not wrong they walk backwards
