I saw the flowers today
parading their beauty
opening up
~
like the dresses I see
getting shorter
when the sun gets higher
- ALL-TOO-BEAUTIFUL AND HUMAN.—“Nature is too beautiful for thee, poor mortal,” one often feels. But now and then, at a profound contemplation of all that is human, in its fulness, vigour, tenderness, and complexity, I have felt as if I must say, in all humility, “Man also is too beautiful for the contemplation of man!” Nor did I mean the moral man alone, but every one.

Underneath you see three pictures of people, one is smiling, one is handsome and the other just a little baby. There is nothing special about these people when you look at them besides the fact that they all were in charge of regimes that killed millions of people.
