The faces I meet
A train at 4 a.m.
The call of the vein.
Different boulders.
Misunderstanding?
I open the door
And find a human-a glistening sardonic.
If I am happy, I am in a deathtrap.

I
love the stone for the fact that he is steadfastly silent
I
don't like people because they die
little birds kiss the
glass of the universe
the world is a torn book in the hands of a
child

No green in the clock
Once he protested alone against injustice and got defeated.
Then he thought he should protest collectively
And he joined the city of protest
And it is wise act
And it is positive.
congratulations!
But for a long time, I do not find any greenness in the clock.

the
sky eats birds on the horizon
the bird shrinks to the size of a
dot
the sun shines like a question mark
what will happen
next?
