One option you could consider if you wanted to lengthen this since simply dealing with the mosquito the same way could get repetitious, is to blend a competing narrative into the piece that the mosquito is distracting the narrator from. Just a thought. As it stands though, pace did not strike me as an issue.
I'm wondering how you felt about the beginning and overall pace of the poem? Did it deliver the ending too quickly?
Thank you so much again!
Best,
