Question: Will you comment about a comment!?
Water in a wooden bowl,
swirling,
a slice of orange on its edge!.
A black ant climbs
the arc of the rind!.
Pink fingers pluck life
from life!.

We really don't have a clue,
do we!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
we killed a tree
to make the bowl
emptied the tap
to fill the bowl
Plucked a tree
to kill the fruit
sliced it up
to decorate!.!.!.!.

The ant was an
innocent bystander!.
Not pretty enough
Not edible enough
A total and utter
threat to humanity
as we know it!.
A justified death!?
That's for you to decide!.!.!.

That's all from me
at the crime scene

Swirling water in a wooden bowl can represent the ocean on a calm day, the orange slice on its edge, provokes stimulus of sensual peaks and valleys, the black sugar ant climbing the arc of the rind can represent reach goals and desires of attainment, pink finger (hence fresh life/ plucking life from life a birth or rebirth of life)!. We don't hva a clue because we choose to be clueless!.
Thank you, for the though provoking morning!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am stuck on your "swirling"I don't for a moment think you should change it,no!.!.but I see the ant against the rind so brightly and the "water in the wooden bowl" so clearly I'm left asking what movement is making this swirling,it is on it's own followed by a comma,!.!.!.that's an intriguing image,perhaps a symbol of the overall movements that move us all,a force that only something as sensitive as water,can reveal!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No matter what else happens, there still exists the chaotic randomness of life, and a few of us occasionally take the time to observe the moments as they happen, irrespective of the outcome!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
