a bed of ignorance

the thunder came
this night, rain in his
voice, he growled:
i struck you down.

i answered: not you,
the lightning burned
a hole in my shoes,
see, i'm barefoot.

walking softly on
the freshly cut grass
i smiled, i know
the silence in noise.

then i knocked my
head in the dark,
the tree complained
and ignored my pain.

i felt he can, why not,
we are not obliged
to listen, to be aware,
and i walked around,

stealing quietly the apples
i had caused to fall,
the law of gravity
makes one lose, 

the other gains.
after i sat down
on a stone and felt
why move, it is enough.

i fell asleep, when i woke
the crows circled the sky,
hungry, with sharp eyes,
coming out of the sun.
