Fierce Vigilance
Reflection
In the depths of its gaze, a world of wonder lies,
A universe of tiny, intricate surprise.
The ant's fierce vigilance, a mirror to our own,
A reflection of the watchfulness we've known.
Its compound eyes, like ancient wisdom's keep,
Guarding the gates of a hidden, inner deep.
The mandibles, a testament to strength and might,
A symbol of the resilience that guides through the night.
In every detail, a story unfolds,
Of a world that's hidden, yet forever told.
The texture of its exoskeleton, a map of the earth's dark past,
A chronicle of survival, forever to forever last.
This tiny king, a monarch of the unseen land,
Rules with a quiet power, a gentle, yet firm hand.
Its presence whispers secrets, of a world untold,
A world that's hidden, yet forever to be told.
