DINH NGUYEN _______________________________ CALL
IT LIVING Translated by Do Vinh Dying
without prior notice. Who knows
ahead the hour of death. The
fateful flight is the
flight destined for a meeting
with the angels of death, for the first and also the final time. Nowhere
to go only to
make the necessary appointment,
but to die
suddenly because an entire
building collapses, that is
what is called destiny is it not?
Isn’t it destiny what
we call for
dying without prior notice. So that
one has not gone
anywhere, not yet done anything,
but already know
that death is sudden from the start, what to call it precisely! To
die gradually slowly is to live.
