In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said, "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter -- bitter," he answered;
"But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart."
- Stephen Crane

Because the world is so full of death and horror, I try again and again to console my heart and pick the flowers that grow in the midst of hell.

For a long time, a long time
I've loved you like the roots
that with all of the power
of the earth love,
until they burst
into flowers.
