Poetical Questioning

Can the black live
                        without the white ...?
                      May the sun rise
                        no morning ...
                       The cock sound
                         without singing ...
                       The rose sprlackout
                         without button ...
                        Can color decorate
                          without tone...
                         Laughter be smile
                           without mourning ...
                         The pain live
                          without consolation ...
                         A star burns without
                           without heating ...
                          The beast his brother
                           fear...
                           The couple live together
                             without mating ...
                           The horse without
                             hungry horse ...
                            May death
                              die...
                            Can the poetry
                              poet itself ...
                            Without meed of
                            a poet   ...
                            life alone
                               live...
                             be welcome
                              without
                             come  ...
                             One can be joyful
                               alone...
                              Can youl livei without
                               me,
                               and me without
                                 you...?

A great comparison of poetic pairs, but ending in the natural question of love. Truly a beautiful poem Alkas.
