Dedicated to Emma
After being banned from his local corner shop for haphazardly knocking over its contents, yet again!
He sensed the presence of Mothdog, it had been a number of years since its last sighting
Blissfully unaware, the contents of the shopping are slowly making a break for freedomCornflakes and tins go flying through the air
They came crashing down to earth sadly just like Mothman
No sand could stop Mothman. He had found civilization
The trail of corn flakes, cans and milk changed the landscape
A mere snack
Onward bound the elements would not stop him on this quest
Mothman’s collectors item plastic bag had finally worn through, but there’s no point crying about spilt milk
Crumps of cornflakes were a fine substitute.
Batlow Australia New South Wales late 1998
Adolf the duck was roaming around the farm when it began to rain heavily
Weight of rain is the enemy of fragile wings. Flight was simply not possible
mesmerised by the moths, he had never seen so many moths in peril
he placed this hand into the puddle to save them one by one.
He took them into this dwelling and placed each one gently onto the drying clothes inside.
The warmth brought flight back to the moths. they spiralled around the room.
A few hours later he awoke…..
The clothes were saturated with moth eggs as dozens of moths lay lifeless.
His girlfriend's frustration fell on deaf ears
He was no longer the man he once was. he was golden like the sun yet surround by Failure.
