Similarities

Although something new occurred almost daily

since the hour we met Him, fame had promised not

to ignore us and we didn’t ask for anything else

but to occasionally pull out of the bag of chaos

the bloomed rose or the perennial smile of

the young lover while our Hero stood transfixed on

the dead body of the rope walker who left behind

a splendid legacy most people would love to have

yet never had the courage to fight for.

Even more so when the jester was more important

than the minister and the undertaker more valuable

than the tax collector, after all they all specialized

on the ephemeral.
