K ... And The Apple

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The italic K
in the title
stands for
KAFKA
 
The following is 
a very simple observation
he made about a simple object
and how different people
respond to it
 
Let the simple object
be an apple

Consider
the view of a little boy
who his to crane his neck
in order to glimpse
the apple on a table
🍎
 
Now consider 
the master of the house:
who takes the apple 
and freely hands it
to the person
sitting at the table
with him.
 🍎 

(1917)

    This page is about K as in Kafka
    + the K as in Kierkeggaard
    + the K as in updiKe

    The sum of which is KKK:
    are you a closet ultra-right-wing conservative?

      Absolutely NOT
      but, to make me much more interesting
      than I really am...
      you are welcome to believe otherwise
