After he died. Or had he, really? I still don't know.
It was funny how
the moment they died
you
reffered to them

he is dead.

It is funny how
the moment they die
you
reffer to them

he was dead.

The plain of humanity,
a puzzle in words?

Could a toothpick
pick a tooth
like a splinter
in her palm?


What a man
he is.

What a man
he was.

Grammar of the soul.
Pretence of the life.

When does conceptual realm

become determined ground?
What a man
he was.



When do fairy tales meld

to nightmares?
The plain of humanity,
a puzzle in words?

Grammar of the soul.
Pretence of the life.

So why is he dead already,
when he only just died?
