A chapter in the book Worlds

Fly World 2

by Bill Schott

When you start out as a maggot, boy,

it's tough to grasp what others enjoy.

Vomiting on my food is rad,

but look -- I can fly. That ain't so bad?

Oh look! A dog has left some droppin's;

manna from heaven, I guess I'll stop in.

If I live to be fourteen or so, and a day,

I might discover why I'm shooed away.

Now I need to concentrate enough

to get myself off this sticky stuff.
