The Blue Fly"

The ignorant, loutish, giddy blue-fly
Hung without motion on the cling peach
Humming occasionally 'O my love, my fair one!'

Looks farcically human; laugh if you will!
Bald head, stage fairy wings, blear eyes,

For debauch of a peach.

To bear on the case, even in search of truth?

To glut the carriers of her epidemics -
Nor did the peach complain. — Robert Graves
