Stopping by Butterflies, Remastered
All that lives in black and white—
butterflies pulsing on a boulder
startle the multi-faceted forest’s greening
Papery wings’ stark
slow/flip wraps rock to oblivion
black/white black/white on/off on/off
tuxedo flashing code
blooming on a graph
telegraph alive a live crowdsourced
complex eye/ tiny-all-in-one heartbeat
of text / simple / indecipherable
writ in shiny bodies / wing-scale
overlays leaf-light
typeset through fleeting years
prints this very
instant
