there was a fly sitting on it.
I watched it walk across my window
Here and there,
Then stop,
It started rubbing
its back legs together
Then its front legs
The fly then continued on its way
Walking, stopping and rubbing
Then all at once
I had what is called
an "epiphany"
A moment of heightened awareness,
A revelation,
which manifested itself into an enlightenment
In which at that precise time
everything became crystal clear
I knew that what I had witnessed
And suddenly what I had to do
WASH THE DAMN WINDOW
