Supervision Taken To Its Logical Conclusion
one of those flies
circling round the bug zapper
like there was no tomorrow
moving closer & closer
zooming in, zooming out
oblivious to how many of its friends were just
completely fried
only moments ago,
and then it does itself in
mashing its very being into the machine designed to
eliminate it---
like icarus to the sun,
like a naïve little sheep
who has wandered their way into a pack of
lean & hungry
wolves.
