All I Know about Moths
There are many myths about moths.
There are big moths and small moths,
Thin moths and thick moths,
Carpet moths and socks moths,
And all other cloth's moths.
Metamorphosis in moths takes months.
This is because moths' mothers must be betrothed,
And thought given to baby moths' food and clothes.
But in the right climate and proper moth weather,
It should result in a Martha moth, Matthew, Garth, Ruth and Heather.
A misconception about moths without an iota of truth
Is the theory that bright lights attract the moth youth.
Thence the thought that uncouth youth amongst moths exist;
But eminent entomologist, Professor F. Frith,
Said that this was another monstrous moth myth!
The immeasurable mish mash amassed about moths
Moves me to mirth and raises my wrath.
Quote Frith, "One would think with what higher learning hath,
Of theorems, theology, physics and math's,
And months memorizing ancient Greek myths,
That more would be known about little lost moths."
I like moths.
I had a pet moth once: his name was Seth.
And I throb when I think of Seth's tragic moth death.
'Hit his head on a light bulb - fell in a bottle of Meths,
And struggled with desperate besotted last breaths.
I lifted Seth by the thorax out of the foul froth,
And wrote with tears these truths of all I know about moths.
