Moth Resting on the Window of My Passenger Side Door
"Kill it or leave it alone?" I asked myself, remembering the time
I was in Madrid, Spain around 40 years ago studying Spanish
at a college, and while living in the dorm, my next-door neighbor
came out holding his ear. And with an anguished expression
said that a moth had flown into it, and he couldn't get it out.
Fearful that his ear would become infected, he was rushing
to the hospital.
Which made me visualize the moth flying around inside his head,
bouncing off the walls until he finally went mad.
Looking back at the window, I saw that the moth was now gone,
probably hiding somewhere under the seat, as it heard my thoughts
and was afraid that ultimately I wouldn't decide in its favor…
