This November there seems to be nothing to say.
I know that I have died before—once in November.
I would like to think that no one would die anymore if we all believed in daisies but worms know better, don’t they?

Do not rely on February. The sun in this month begets a headache like an angel slapping you in the face.
During the rainstorms of April, the oyster rises from the sea and opens its shell, rain enters it. When it sinks, the raindrops become pearls.
