manic Monday

Two ants, one from the east, one from the west,

Scurry back and forth on a fence rail

Follow chemical signposts on an invisible highway

Left by those who came before

Search for anything that leads to treasure

They can carry back to their hill

Meet in the middle, circle one another,

Exchange professional courtesies and trade secrets

Then depart in opposite directions

Scurry back and forth on a fence rail

Follow chemical signposts on an invisible highway

Left by those who came before
