HOW DO YOU CALL THE ONE LEFT ALIVE?
I half-finish my soy milk
before I notice
I have stuck the straw in at the seal
right into the left eye of Pleasant Goat
right in the middle
as if intentionally
but Pleasant Goat with the straw in its left eye
still sticks its tongue out
and points happily to its right,
just a few lines.
“This will make your head spin:
Two people fall into a trap.
The one who dies is a corpse.
How do you call the one left alive?“
My soy milk is finished
but I haven’t thought of an answer.
