“Did all this make sense?”

“Why the desire for death.
A clean paper or pure white wall.
One false line, a scratch, a mistake.
Unerasable. So obscureby
adding million other tracings,
blend it, cover over.
But the original scratch remains,
written in gold blood, shining.
Desire for a Perfect Life.”

“¿Por qué no nos tratamos unos a otros como hermanos? ¿Por qué hasta el hombre más bueno disimula y calla en presencia de otro? ¿Por qué no decir sin rodeos lo que tiene uno en el corazón, inmediatamente, cuando sabe uno que su palabra no se la llevará el viento? ¿Por qué parecer más adusto de lo que uno es en realidad? Es como si cada cual temiera violentar los propios sentimientos si los expresa libremente.
