Pain
The future doesn’t do much.
Just like paint.
When it’s in a can, it’s nothingness.
When it’s on the wall, it’s covering everything up.
The kitchen walls were just repainted.
In the kitchen, I drop some sugar and everything dies.
I burn my finger on the stove.
I leave it on to burn all the food.
So the food can feel the hurt too.
