Rants and Poetry of a Tired and Angry Man.

Just what the title says, don't look for anything too profound or earthshaking.

Dust Moth

circling the incandescent bulb hanging bare;
dancing the motes, eddies, and micro-convections;
down the minutes counting in complete patience;
drawn by the unfathomable, incomprehensible;
cursed with great energy, short memory, and blessed shortsightedness;
orbit unpredictable, fruitless, and fatal;
accepting fate;
grace in the face of annihilation.

(sorry - i messed it up, here goes again ...)

guy walks into a doctor's office, and the following conversation ensues:

"doctor, i think i'm a moth."

"i don't think i can help you, see. i'm only a general practitioner. i think you need to go see a psychiatrist."

"well, i was on my way over there, but i noticed your light was on."

ba-dum-bum
