Fool in a Glass House


A fool wakes up in a glass house

sees a butterfly fly by

excited, he runs to play with it

but slams into a glass wall

as he comes to

he sees a butterfly,

more beautiful than the last

hits the wall, pain like the last

A fool anguishes

not knowing he’s stumbled outside

lets the most elegant butterfly pass by

remembering the pain and clutching his pride
