Is it easier to begin or to
End?
It depends
Who you are.
For some it is easier to live,
For some it is easier to die.
Take an empty bucket
And leave it under the sky
And wait
And watch
From your chair on the porch
For the bucket to
Overflow.
Lift the bucket and hold it
In glory
Above your head
Wait
Until your arms feel pathetically invigorated with weakness
Then slowly pour to pavement
The water
Creating
The number you think is the age of the
Universe.
The bucket gets lighter
As your muscles tear and strain
When did you feel
The most pain?
Watch
The water
Evaporate
And wonder
Was it
Worth it?
