The shorter the life and the smaller the mind, the greater the chance at happiness.

The wily fox a butterfly espies
And wonders lazily, "What bliss
Within this tiny creature lies
To perish 'fore the sun-twice-rise
And in our world find naught amiss."

Note: in fox language, sun-twice-rise means two nights.
