Sisyphean Attempts at Self-Improvement #1082819 added January 26, 2025 at 11:33am
Restrictions: None
Now I am become Butterfly
The simple and unassuming butterfly
so infinitely capable of mass destruction
Hurricane-force whirlwinds
swirl and twirl in the aftermath
of one beat of its sheer wings
How can it be
so blissfully unaware
of the chaos it sows with every move
Unless the blissfully unaware
simple and unassuming butterfly
is really just a beautiful,
delicate obliterator.
A destroyer of worlds.
