A beetle's death : Shravan

The other day in the twilight
I saw a beetle soaring into the sky
with a vague end in its mind
and then with a cloudless end in its mind
a bird flew up behind..
and snatched the beetle
from the sky into the beak..
After a moment’s silence...,
only the bird was there..
- happy and contented.
And the beetle ceased to exist
happily and contentedly.
-shravan-
