Explaining a Few Things

Every worm is a martyr,

Every sparrow subject to injustice,

I said to my cat,

Since there was no one else around.

 

It’s raining. In spite of their huge armies

What can the ants do?

And the roach on the wall

Like a waiter in an empty restaurant?

 

I’m going in the cellar

To stroke the rat caught in a trap.

You watch the sky.

If it dears, scratch on the door.
