SVEA

she is a woman in her thirties
who cares about other people.
she herself has a good life and living
and much to do, so that there is little time left
to rack her brains, but yet...
when she was a little girl
she often stopped playing
when she saw something unpleasant
and even if she heard about something wrong of sad.
yes, always when she thought about
what could ever happen to other people and cats,
she was full of sorry and compassion.
that is why she decided to study medicine.
and because people need good and useful hands
she studied and studied to be able
to help those whose fingers fail or even miss.
now she spends lots of time to facilitate
and help, but her heart is so large
that she can not stop caring
-on holidays and at carefree and heedless moments-
about possibly sad and piteous things
that might happen to other people and cats.
especially circumstances where no remedies are for
have her deep interest.
she can really sit down and weep
about how tragic it is
when kids go to school and the rain wettens them
and when they are sitting in the classroom
they look outsite and see the sun brilliantly shining
over all things outsite, while they have to sit
and listen and learn things
about other countries,
where they are not intending to go to.
and how to figure out that 2+3=5
and 3-2=1 and why 5 is 4+1 and stuff like that.
the sun is shining, the birds are singing
and those poor, poor kids are unfree
to go where they want and to climb in trees.
than all at once she thinks about
people living around the equator
who always are under the burning sun
longing in vain for water and rain.
she can not sleep thinking about
all the suffering in the world and
especially that which surrounds her
and which imposes itself upon her
every hour of the day and the night.
when she walks along a house that should be painted
her heart curls up with commiseration
because may be the inhabitants are not able to paint or pay it
and probably even for the poor house itself,
that is ashamed to be in such a bad condition.
now that i told you how svea cares
about people and things and cats
you ask me very consequentely:
why does she eat animals?
well, i dont understand that eather.
so ask her yourself!
