I am not a butterfly, their beauty I do not possess. I am but a humble moth, but His creature nonetheless. On this sultry summer's eve, for reasons I can only guess. I'm captivated by the glow; your open flame has me impressed. I'm like a bit of cosmic dust from the outer darkness come. drawn inexorably to my doom, seducedΒ Β towards the fiery Sun. I'm fascinated by your glow; see how you flicker and shift shapes! Ever closer I draw near, Thought I fear it a mistake. Beautiful the reds and golds, like a veiled dancer you entice me on I flare up like a dying star, you scarcely notice I have gone.
A moth and a campfire. It didn't end well for the Moth
