Life is grand

Can you imagine the life of a fly?

To hover around idly,

In the area of higher beings, 

Feasting on their remains, 

Escaping when they see you

I don’t think enough people 

Consider the value of being nice.  

Hold a door open for 

Someone you don't know. 

Give a sandwich to 

One day, on a dry summers night,

A winged monster swooped in, looking for a fight

It burned and it broke everything it could find,

Then it left, leaving carnage behind
