Humans adore flowers;
They say dolphins adore humans too;
But you take it for granted;
A human.

…Hm…Among the list of pleasures,
He surely must like flowers too;
But why?
Why does a human like flowers?

Why does a piece of the abyss,
Like this other specific piece of abyss?
What does connect those two?

Why doesn’t a human like belts?
Blocks of cement,
Or iron?

Why doesn’t he keeps,
The aforementioned
As embroidery in his house?

But he keeps flowers;
He embellishes his house,
With flowers;

      • Thank you Thomas. These are deep voices in my head that would have been lost and forgotten if I had not inked them. I often used to have such thoughts as for now I am not in the poetic mode much and I miss it. I have said it before and I am saying it again, I am a regular reader of your poetry and I like it a lot.
