Sitting and Staring at Ants
Serious thoughts
I wonder what is the global ant population; I bet a check of The Google would provide a clear notion
of ten to the seven quadrillion — math wizards.
Clearly, about half lives here in the kitchen, following
the scent of bananas ripening on the counter.
Or
maybe
in search of a few drops of water.
Ten thousand I saw
excitedly congregating
around a clear puddle on the floor
— all so busy,
fetching and carry
while
I sit here
and stare at ants.
