For the DVerse Poetry question poem challenge
Why?
Why are the thorns as much a part of the rose as the petals?
Why is the only authentic love the love of the “nail-scarred hand”?
Why does the truth crucify us to liberty?
Why does desire dog us like the furies?
Why ignore the way when the twisted paths we follow lead to our ruin?
Why does chocolate taste so much better than broccoli?
Why do we weary so close to our culmination?
Why, oh why, do we ask why ’till the end?
Autumn breeze
the last grasshoppers
still sing
