a mournful tear
similar to yesterday
and yet different from tomorrow over yandro i notice a bird fallen from his nest.
it will die soon
birds don't live very long
a year or two of life
but they never complain
they sing their hearts away
morning after morning
and yet we live to a hundred
we're not grateful
a baby is born innocent
the same baby dies sinful
no one is sinless
so do we all go to hell?
is innocents real?
or is it all a lie?
