A fly
A shallow expression
Of a shallow insect.
A caricature of something
That doesn’t realize
It is represented at all.
Too small for language
It buzzes continuously,
Some sort of overture
To those who would squash it.
To those who invented and overlook
Anthropomorphism,
The father of religion.
Who would mimic nature’s representations,
And pretend the thing-in-itself doesn’t exist,
Or just as soon pretend
The thing-in-itself
Means something.
