habitually,

my nature questions

how gum could fall—

accidentally or not—

from a man's mouth

into the urinal,

and why

tobacco pouches

exist at all.

The man

who cleans

the gum and debris

from this urine stand

has a better attitude

than mine. He must

lest his questioning

ruin his mind.

Yet you question not

why the bee stings,

why the bird sings.

This is their nature.

If this nature is mine,

then a better question:

What nature is Thine?
