Insignificant, with Hubris


An Ant

charged with armored nakedness
into my spinning pen
            its windmill

A fly

Kamakazed with fragrant stench
into my toilet bowl
            its harbor

A lemming

Napped with pretend suicide
onto my physics homework
            its religion

A photon

Soared with unmoving motion
across the galaxy
            its cramped cage

A needle

lived with unique mediocrity
thinking itself the only metal

A monkey

flung poo with ignorant intellect
all over the zoo,
thinking man had nature’s patience

A beaver

built damps, with unsophicated hi-tech
in a minuscule pond
thinking it’s shaping the entire world

A Wordsmith

wrote with artifical hubris
in his weathered leather bound book
thinking he alone hears the moans of society


Meanwhile,
A baby yawned
