Résumé

Résumé / Michael Kwack

 

Love is, like art,

dull without passion.

 

Marriage is, like enterprise,

vain without fortune.

 

Home is, like a chair,

awkward without comfort.

 

Life is, like sleep,

hollow without a dream.

 

Death* is, like a letter,

absurd without a story.

 

  *Death means suicide.
