Turtle Laughed Poem by Randy McClave

Turtle Laughed



In the eyes of a fly I am an immortal
I live for years and it lives for just a day
I then kill it, and I give a slight chortle
It should have been faster and flew away,
I pass a slow crawling turtle upon my path
In the eyes of that turtle I am just a fly
It then stops its crawling so it could laugh
It pities me, because soon it knows I will die.
