I sit..
I sit and watch the people of the city..
In this unequal battle between the empty-handed and empty-minded people, who will be the winner, may God take him? How many people, each of them who fell on the ground and became the flag of the city, when the flag of the city lights up, the victory of these two empty peoples. I sit watching these empty-handed and empty-brained people.
I sit and watch the rats that leave the ship while it is sinking..
I sit down to watch the children who wear pins in the clouds of their naked imaginations.
I sit down to watch the ax bring down the tree that once took its life. And this is the tree that has no way to die from the relentless whip of the ax. And the crows that are pushing the tree in the sky are circling and mocking that your offspring is trying to cut you down.
I sit down to watch the people at dawn, when they are deep in sleep, when they wake up not after a new day.
