Arthur, to me this seems longer than it is due to the line breaks you use.
Some of those the most suspect below. About 40 lines, with different breaks
maybe down to 30 or less.
Flies and frogs. Two poems? I don't see that, but maybe a two part poem,
the end connecting the parts.
Thanks.

With gasps of terror
I see the long
unsleeping hours of torment
but their numbers
are undiminished and assail.
I realise
the lamp has summoned them
Sudden
on the banks of the pool of light
of darkness detach and lurch
heavy throbs of life,
that pulse and belch.
