16.

 

The ocean of people

with eclipse of heart

on nowhere streets.

Nothing but delirium of steel jungles

faded by smog.

 

 

17.

 

Darkness plunders the bright crescent.

The thousand eyes of the sky are covered

and dream is green in the wisdom of trees.

Crickets play their sorrow

and clouds burst into tears.

 

 

18.

 

The garden is full of scars.

and windows are closed.

Ignorance is dancing in the dark.

and blind wisdom is seeking light.

Hug the moment

in the mourning of love

cause hands will putrefy.

 

 

19.

 

I am a cage bird

whose hope of deliverance

has gone with the wind.

Now I am used to my cage.

 

 

20.

   

I am not going to be a kite

in hands of the wind.

I have a thirst that oceans can not fulfill.

Without love light is darkness.

I will love as long as I live.
