Ladybird

Written on 7 November 2018

In the morning I was introduced to the ladybird. We made small talk about the weather.

By the afternoon we were firm friends. We talked intimately of our hopes and fears.

By the evening I worshiped the ladybird as a God or deity. I believed that it was the one true path to human salvation.

I ate the ladybird in the night for sustenance. I was starving.

Penance would have to wait.
