Notes About The Poem

 

* The cuckoo is a symbol of unrequited love 

- Soup Cuckoo -

Jealousy is not the fear of losing
the feeling that our position is threatened
As wet sand between your toes, unwanted

Sometimes jealousy turns into obsession
There are many wars, love your enemies ... never
We fight for love as a tender and small sparrow
Bitter taste, there is a fly in the soup
