The nice but flightless kiwi bird Desires to be like the millipede; The millipede to be like the serpent; The serpent like the gale-force wind; The wind to be like the eye which sees Decades of miles ahead; and the eye To be like the mind, the fancy of which Enables even the kiwi to be already flying.
