PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I mean, the butterflies were really being dicks today.  I had my camera out and I was trying to get good pictures.  Every time I was lined up for a good picture, they flitted away leaving with a shot of dirt and cedar chips.  They say you can’t touch the butterflies, they never said that trying to photograph one was a cardinal sin.

Butterflies are being dicks

Flit away laughing

It was bad.  I mean the tarantulas and cockroaches cooperated with my sophomoric attempts at photographic virtuosity.  The butterflies were different.  They teased like they were going to provide a clear picture and then the fluttered off mocking me in my desperate efforts.  I finally gave up and left.  

I take my solace

a few choice pics of roaches

and tarantulas
