The accident

Rasmus Berggren 2002 (Linkoping)



Doesn't it disturb you of what you are ?
I don't mean mentally
But physically
Limbs of sorts
Twisted intestines
Grey matter
Nails
Hair
Blood
We even have a skeleton
I have many times thought of the absolute absurdity of  it all
Maybe it all was an accident
It all was an accident
