Fly eyes are complex with up to 1,000 individual facets or immatidia.
Each facet sees light which, reflected from their lidless eyes,
forms a rainbow. They clean their eyes with their feet. Amazing
creatures, they are nonetheless vulnerable, gullible and easy to kill.

    You can catch more flies with honey, but you can catch more dicks with flies.

    Also, time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana.

    I love words that mean different things depending on the context.

    time and space illusions of mind
    the only reality love
    when you look at me
    and see just yourself
    my heart flies
    on wings of a dove
