Something Insectual

There are over 1 million known species of insects in the world.
Some experts estimate there may be as many as 10 million!


Eric the Half-a-Bee

Half a bee, philosophically,
Must ipso facto half not be.
But half a bee has got to be
Vis a vis its entity.
D'you see?

But can a bee be said to be
or not to be an entire bee.
Due to some ancient injury.

La di di, one two three,
Eric the Half-a-Bee

Is this wretched demi-bee,
Half-asleep upon my knee,
Some freak from a menagerie?
No! Its Eric the Half-a-Bee.

Fiddle di dum, fiddle di dee,
Eric the Half-a-bee.
Ho ho ho, tee hee hee,
Eric the Half-a-Bee.

~ Monty Python

P.s. before anyone wishes to say that a spider in not a true insect, try Google and you will find that a spider is actually a man dressed in a funny tight outfit that fights crime, although he is misunderstood! Go figure?
