The Pier

And in the universe
the curve of time
is so much greater than an apple:
it appears a straight line
that man does not want to understand.

There,
before the existence
of your eyes,
" God,"
Coca Cola,
and the telephone,
the universe had sense:
it was a lamp, an apple,
a brake factory;
it was a song poured into a cup.

Nevertheless, man,
parasite under the empire of the sun,
not being able to decipher his origins,
calls himself the son of "God,"
in order to convince himself
he has inherited the universe.
