The Right

The umbilical cord of
forbidden pleasures is tightly wrapped around
the fragile neck of
the suicide of the weak one

the baby (yours) goes back through
the birth canal, twists itself into an embryo and
calls to his mama telepathically

the babies who are born after all
spend their time in the womb
looking in colorful books with different lives
Ah, how impossible is to choose!

Today I will refuse the lunch

Good deeds are done
by bad people
before the jump
the brave suicide waves to mama telepathically
the weak one does the same
before every drink
