FULL MOON ON TOP OF A CHAMPAGNE PALM'S TIP

nobody likes a war
but peace can be
an anxious companion
and so we begin
to make war and then
another war
until we miss peace again
but war has become too
exciting and so we create
wars, outside us and
when we begin to love
all these kinds of wars
we forget what peace is
all about, and when
peace comes once
in a while, we become
restless

to a certain extent
we make all the wars
inside us
and we love all these
for by then
we are assured that
we are still alive

those who are dead
they rest in peace.
