Curiosity, fool, residence, blanket, windows, lifted, among, misery, time, light, fern, want, pride, kind, money, graze.


 


As I leave my residence,


the light is just beginning to shine


through the windows.


I feel like a fool because curiosity and pride


have caused me so much misery.


I'd heard that covering a fern with a blanket


could make alot of money,


but I want to tell you,


it's not so.


I lifted the edge


and all I saw among the ferns


was a kind of beetle that


just wanted to graze.


That's the last time I fall


for that story!
