I love you for your color
Your intricateย ย designs
The frail wind of your wings
Glucose flavored lips
The driving force of your antennae
Against my skin
As you
taste
feel
smell
sound
me
Behind glass
You smile forever---
Bright and beautiful among the dust
A perfect setting
For a perfect specimen
The other boys would only catch you
And tear off your wings
Never I say
Never would I ever
Instead
I show you to everyone who comes over
How gorgeous you are in your glass case
Your wings are so large and scaled
Two wonderfully fragmented compound eyes
Such grace
and color
Nothing else in the world like you (I say)
So beautiful isnโ€™t she?
And a ****** pain to catch
