Because I yearn for death so eagerly

‘Don’t cause yourself to perish’ speaks to me:

We all know sweet fruit’s banned, and we take heed

But to ban bitter fruit there’s no need;

This berry with sour skin and flesh you see

Is banned for sourness and dishonesty,

The fruit of death though tastes sweet once it’s peeled—

For me ‘Now they’re still living’ was revealed!
