Handel Concerto Grosso

it was like a meeting
of cats
the objective of which
is to bell the
dog

who among you has the courage to do the belling of the dog?

yes the meeting among brothers and sisters
before mother died
before father followed her
before my grandfather died

it is about land, money
it is all about inheritance

who would spend to the funeral without reimbursement?
who would shoulder the bills of their hospitalization using private funds?

none would do that
my youngest brother said they died and they have their own money
let them spend for themselves then

what i want is, he said, which inheritance is mine
that is all i need, who cares?

so who will take the bell of this dog's greed?

handel play on play on they are killing each other.
