How to be precise

     kurdish black tea with rose & cardamom from Murî ( rating: 3.6/5)  not usually a fan of astringent black teas but i liked how deep its sapidity still was, righteously balanced with the floral.                                                        Slicing ginger root yesterday urged me to consider why the verb "gingerly" is derived from the plant.

at the end of everything,

dancers still use air as their material

at the end of everything,

flat shells will fail to be heard 

at the end of everything,

voices keep singing without instruments

at the end of everything,

i will still use my fingers as a comb.
