Isaac Singer's Butterflies

Amgels touch the impaled

body of a Nabokov

butterfly.. bringing him

back to life.. he wings away

*******



Isaac Bashevis Singer said of Nabokov:



No lepidopterist's collection in the entire world...full if iridescent wings, is worth the life of a single butterfly.



what those who love peace say of those who act violently

in war, in execution chamber, in slaughterhouse:



No military project in the entire world.. is worth the

life of a single butterfly..

how many butterflies are snuffed with each bomb?

each tank?
