there is a beetle-like bug on the shirt of the girl in front of me. to pick it off or not to pick it off.

to pick it off is to create immediate commotion, but to avoid potentially greater commotion later. unless, of course, she does not discover it, in chich case picking said bug off will cause the only commotion potentially possible.

to not pick it off is to temporarily risk her sanity. and to cause the greatest of all potential commotions.

so, here i sit, the bug having long ago travelled over her shoulder into potential danger. and as she shifts in the desk chair, i wonder how long the beetle-like bug will last and if the girl will notice its tiny shell cracking. and, to think, i was in a position to preserve life and i turned it down to contemplate, theorize, about potential outcomes. alas, it was doomd from the start. what kind of life can a beetle-like bug lead indoors?
