No Killing Moths
Directive/Alert
The supervisor android on the ship is adamant.
The moth colony escaped the Ark last week.
They must be caught and returned to storage.
This is not about the precious cargo you carry,
fabrics turned into surveillance tools. If you find
them in your sweaters, alert the keeper bots.
We brought moths for a reason, pollination
for the night-blooming plants, food supply
for the warblers we also carry in the hold.
So no killing moths, even when they inhabit
the tenth-generation coat you inherited,
even when they alarm you with their paper wings.
The birds will rouse from cryo soon. Let the moths nest,
if you want the joy of birdsong in the morning
when you too awaken on a distant shore.
