The house is clean, fragrant,
the refrigerator is full,
the snack jar overflows with nuts,
three single malt whiskeys in the kitchen shelf,
fresh farm fruits in the basket.

The squirrels run down from the tree
The puppies play in the grass
The public circle inside the park

I fell asleep and woke up Like a security guard in the gate. I feel I found a purpose of life Like the howling street dog in the night. [Read More]

When the new year sun shines on the grass, it’s a next number in the common era, It is a continuation of yesterday. The biological aging process continues, Deaths increases, Deceased don’t wake up from the coffin, And sit in the weary stone bench And contemplate is time linear in the earth? On a sunny afternoon, In the middle of a traffic jam, Tens of bots, and automatons, send you the birthday wishes. [Read More]
