The Checkerspot Butterfly, dearest insect to my heart, is a fascinating aerial
creature. Its sputtering flight and glimmering colors remind me of my father's
childish and excited nature speak. The butterfly as we all know staves off the
bestial cravings of dangerous aeropredators like the raven, the hawk, the
tremendous bald eagle, the
brave californian condor, and all other sorts similarly feathered hunters. I
got lucky one day to catch one in my butterfly net, with eyes brimming with
tears, I set it loose upon a glade of flowers. By that point in the day the
moon was running down the day and I headed back to my Toyota Prius. I drink
Brandy, Scotch, Red Wine cocktails on visits to Butterfly Glade, so I was hazy
from the alcohol as I sped home. Then, as Prince's new song "Mother Earth"
grooved on my stereo, I decided to comment on the disappearance of the
checkerspot butterfly, secret insect paramour of mine. So Either, buy me a HUGE
FUCKING BLU RAY TV WITH SPEAKERS TO FILL MY HOME WITH THE SOUND OF BUTTERFLIGHTS
OR SAVE MY GODDAMN WINGED FRIEND. FUCK YOU CONGRESS.
