Humus

Humus is a garden.

The garden of these flowers that bloom and wither in the same stride.

The garden that tries to make still witnesses some of these hatched. Or at least those that would dare to appear according to the passing time, the weather, the seasons.

“I hate juggling.

…

and at the same time I have to recognize a kind of clarity, of obviousness of the rules of the game, so simple, readable, that everyone in the audience understands the issues.

For example, if I take six objects in my hands and signal to throw them in the air, then everyone understands that I am about to assume the sum of my commitment to six.

So, for example, if I throw six and I assume or catch only five (and by saying this I challenge anyone in the audience to manage to throw and catch five), then everyone in the audience, all the witnesses of the scene will know that I have failed, that I have not been able to live up to my claim… and even this child in the front row, not even able to grab a single club with his two hands, understanding the vanity of my failure, may start laughing, making fun of me and I .. it will touch me deeply in my ego. ”
