I Salute The Humble

and industrious dung beetle
who, to stop its journey,
with its heavy load, being circular
navigates its night time path
by observing The Milky Way.
Never in the field of Natural History
has anything quite as small looked up
and guided itself by anything so epic.
However small and near the gutter we are,
we all can, and must, look up to the stars.
