The spirits of heaven and earth. I look down... You, fly! Unknown to disgust Revelling in the solidity of your warm ambition "You, fly! Know the Earth and its bounty." I look up with darkness all round Glee in the beauty of a falling star But wait! "You, fly! And your jest of chemical fire." Have taught me a lesson Of far thought beauties within grasp Scholar of sustenance and Archetypal will-o-wisp "Thank you. You, flies!" For showing me All that I can be And all there is to see

The Fly and the Firefly
The spirits of heaven and earth. I look down... You, fly! Unknown to disgust Revelling in the solidity of your warm ambition "You, fly! Know the Earth and its bounty." I look up with darkness all round Glee in the beauty of a falling star But wait! "You, fly! And your jest of chemical fire." Have taught me a lesson Of far thought beauties within grasp Scholar of sustenance and Archetypal will-o-wisp "Thank you. You, flies!" For showing me All that I can be And all there is to see
