Meaning of existance

Somewhere,

Tiles get wet despite curtains on bathtubs.

Somewhere,

Ants bump into each other,

A flower fades without a window

For the light to fall in.

The curtains don't matter,

The ants keep bumping,

The flower dies.

Everything exists and nothing happens;

Like men in Hollywood

Pointing guns without opening fire,

Like foam on coffee,

Popping to reveal the shallowness,

The waste of money.

Everything exists and nothing happens.

The tiles get wet

And the ants bump

And flowers fade and die.

Everything exists and nobody knows why.

And nobody knows why nobody knows why.
