Wondering the Why

Equipped with wings too frail to fly Or so it seems to such as I He settles on the best. Soundlessly, compellingly shy. Inspecting low, rejecting high, Finds perfect place to rest. "Tis only man who needs a map From a computer on his lap, To find his unmarked way. The fly has his instincts to tap, To lead him to the sweetest sap For a productive stay. 4/18/2012
