No Thank You

No thank you. I don’t agree. The setting sun does not remind me of time’s fleetingness. Discarded cups of yogurt in the park do not remind me of impending ecological collapse. The dark wings of crows do not remind me of death. Just today, when I was walking through the sunlit park, I saw a crow eating apple slices out of a plastic bag, squawking eagerly with each crisp bite.
