Poison’s sweet or salt flavour
Death gathers here, as do words,
In just a minute, it will start pouring here.

the outward signals
of inward struggles takes colossal forms
And the revolution happens because our dreams explode.

Knowledge is wealth,
Greater than all riches,
Wise is considered he,
Who acquires it.
