Poem

 While people worry about world-war and possible collision with comets,
 You're proud to become again a donkey.
 Driving your ex or post-divorced around the polluted city
 Shopping for nonsensical items, staring at strangers, window nosing,
 or such "exciting" activities
 Or just to "relax"!
 Oh! I can just well picture the boring-image
 Day in, day out,
 How you spend your useless time (anyhow)!
 Carrying loads of madame's laundry,
 Bringing in daily meals from outside to her majesty!
 Scrubbing dirty floor,
 Making the bed and cleaning the pots!...
 While she has nothing better to do than reading gossip-column
 And comic stuffs!

 Oh what a fool I was,
 To panic!
 Thinking I've lost a precious stone
 Actually, it's only a stupefied moron
 Not worth even once to look at!
 Don't worry! You belong to each other in the first place.
 Why had I wasted time,
 Trying to polish brick into mirror!

 I hate to say this:
 But G-o-d is just a bad old fool,
 Creating such a funny-dramatic but boring theater script.
 And make it real as potato-chips.
 O, my!... And I bite every morsel!
 To say the least,
 This really is sh... (you know it!)

 

 While I am struggling between life and death
 In a small hospital room,
 You celebrate joyfully the deliberate union in a hotel suite!
 At the cost of my agony.
 Now, the true face of so-called friendship emerged, finally!


 So much for the romance.
 Talk about real love!
 Now, face to face with actuality
 Every word seems empty!
 When it's really happening
 Love amounts to nothing.
 Ha ha! To laugh or to cry
 The pain is excruciating!
 

 Seems like the whole world falls apart,
 Seems like I never know God.
 Oh -- Delicious is this thing called life!
 Bitter, sweet, sour, agony, any taste you like --
 Just savour whatever it is,
 In tears or in sweat,
 In the blood or in raw pain.
 That's what the theologian explains
 To you in amount of books that can build thousands pyramids.
 

 But it is useless,
 To me,
 To anybody.
 When they have this special pain in the heart.
