BUTTERFLY NET
Ashok Niyogi
In the forest with my net and magnifying glass,
Sandwiches and coffee and all the equipment I need
I catch and examine butterflies.
A stallion rides into my butterfly net
And once enmeshed,
Starts to neigh and stamp his feet
Crushing the grass flowers underneath.
I was out to catch a butterfly
But caught a horse instead.
