principio
caminar. y en el trayecto, elegir la más bonita rosa.
Robarla.
Después huir con ella a su casa
y dejarla en una olla (sin agua), sobre una mesa.
medio
siéntese a su lado
mirándola continuamente,
y lo suficientemente cerca para sentir su perfume.
De vez en cuando tocarla
(Cuidadosamente)
continuar, continuar, continuar
hasta que cese su vida, hasta que seque, marchite.
final
p.s. levantarse de la silla sólo para ir al baño, comer y dormir.
(y siempre volver inmediatamente)
beggining
walk. and along the path choose the most beautiful rose.
Steal it.
Later run with it to your home.
Leave it in a vase (without water) on the table.
middle
Sit down beside it
Continuously staring at it,
close enough to feel its perfume.
Once in a while touch it
(carefully).
keep doing so, keep doing it, keep doing it.
up to when its life has completely gone away. Up to when it is dry and wilted.
end
p.s. stand up only to go to the restroom, eat and sleep
(and always come back immediately)
