Ants Eat Birds In the End
“Always remember that birds eat ant,
but in the end, ending up as ants’ menu list”,
she always told him.
Regarding the statement as a concoction of words,
he went on doing what he loved doing; consuming time
in a Gypsy tent, searching for the elixir of immortality.
In the end, he died of old age without a solution
to his aging, which he regarded as a natural abnormality;
time finally consumed him.
