Never Claimed

Poetry

I have never claimed
you’ll die
if you don’t read my story.
I am not saying
one cannot survive long
without reading poetry.
I want to tell you
every love is connected
with the hope of
getting some advantages
over one’s nearest
neighbors.

I don’t think
all selfish people
are unsuccessful
in their
personal lives
as I’ve noticed them
spraying perfumes
on artificial flowers
used to decorate
their private
living rooms!
