….and the winning entry in our annual
Summer Art Imitating Nature category is
Ms. Phyllophila Ephemera’s highly original
And bewitchingly lifelike pattern—
A myriad of houseflies captured for posterity
On an arresting white background!
(Applause)
And from the curtained-off Adults Only section of the show, we give you now Ms. Phyllophila Ephemera's prize-garnering hors d'oeuvre -- er, chef d'oeuvre.

Before we have made our divine little larvae?

ReplyDeleteI will make myself
A mensch to while
The time away.
