Damselfly darting
A flittering shadow
In the reeds
Its delicate wings
cracked glass reflecting
In moonlight
Its brief lifespan
Stolen from the pond.
Damselfly embodies Nature,
dances with borrowed power
Spiralling towards entropy
Into the Eternal Maw
Before Returning at last
That power so ineffable
The dance ceases.
