Evolution favors us but compared to man, we're built inside out and upside down with an ugly face, We have no bones, our skeleton external, to grow we must molt which takes a little trouble,
Like man, most of us live to work, mate and die, no time for fun we live so briefly, Some of us have neither Mouths nor Stomachs and will never eat at all,
Can you catch the scent of your LOVE downwind like the moth? |
Most like man, we are obsessed with light, following it even into death,
I pass my short time watching the garden spider weave his intricate web for me,
But its the constant buzz of the neighboring beehive that reminds me how sweet even a short life can be,
I imagine a tiny honeybee was probably diving onto a honeybee orchid
Some where, braking on a soft petal and tasting her candied nectar, while walking into the flower of love. |
