sleepless night
moth to light

The craft of angling is catching fish. The art of angling is a
receptiveness to those connections, the art of letting one
thing lead to another until, if only locally and momentarily,
you realize some small completeness.

I usually light a cigarette when I can't sleep.  I would think a moth would have a strange flavour; not as satisfying as tobacco

Peter,
I stopped cold turkey 40 years ago and only
rarely suck my thumb. Don't you ever bounce
around the house like a moth gyrating around
a light bulb or a candle to no end but caught
in this dance?
