Some Questions

When would you say it is 
enough ?

No more, any morsel !
Take away my bowl from here to there. 

When would you say ?
The collective prize of the unknown world 

may be despoiled if you 
remained silent.

The wilted rose sits in
my hand.

How can I offer it, at the sepulchered god ?

It is hurting. The animals 
walk away after the fill. Do not collect the garbage 
around them,
like you.

The naked primate stood one day on his legs
and was still standing.
