Here I am. Today. Probably tomorrow too.
But already I feel death in my body, and one day I will be gone.

My father.
I know him through the one who calls me brother.
He shows me my father.
Because of my brother I reject fear, whether hate, or anger, or loneliness.

My brother is helping my self to die, so that the life of my father
can be unrestrained within me.
He is very patient.
