Little birds and little bugs
Fly so close to the ground
A kind of car-level lowness
That is detrimental
Near-death experiences
Upon each flight
So why can I not do the same
Let me fly low to the ground
Whether my guts spew
On the windshield
Or by some happenstance
I survive
I care not what becomes of me

It's that time of the year when butterflies and other like creatures end up splattered on car windshields.
