Poetry. FLIES is a series of poems narrated by eight flies who patiently wait for the death and then piggishly devour the remains of Sam Jeden, an old man who faces his end without friends or family. The real matter of the poems is loneliness, something flies do not experience but ultimately learn from Sam.
