random thoughts by archy

one thing that
shows that
insects are
superior to men
is the fact that
insects run their
affairs without
political campaigns
elections and so forth

   *      *      *

a man thinks
he amounts to a lot
but to a misquito
a man is
merely
something to eat

   *      *      *

i have noticed
that when
chickens quit
quarrelling over their
food they often
find that there is
enough for all of them
i wonder if
it might not
be the same way
with the
human race

   *      *      *

germs are very
objectionable to men
but a germ
thinks of a man
as only the swamp
in which
he has to live

   *      *      *

a louse i
used to know
told me that
millionaires and
bums tasted
about alike
to him

   *      *      *

the trouble with
most people is
that they
lose their sense of
proportion
of what use is
it for a
queen bee to fall in
love with a bull

   *      *      *

what is all this mystery
about the sphinx
that has troubled so many
illustrious men
no doubt the very same
thoughts she thinks
are thought every day
by some obscure hen
