Beating (1)

    Beat

On

Water

And

It will

Splash

But

Then

The drops

Flow

    Together

Again

Beating (2)

    Beat

On

Ice

And

It will

Shatter

And never

Will

The ice

Chips

Find

    Together

Again

Dawn

    In the

Gray of

Morning

Night

Leaves

Behind

A Little

Fatigue

    In the

Awakening

Opera

    The opera

Is

The mad-

House

Of the

    Culture-

Possessed

Birth

    With

Birth

We

Conclude

The

First

Contracts

With

    This

World

Years

    Not

Because

The earth

Wobbles

The years

Are felt

    Differently

Long

Language Disentanglement

    Is

English

Or

Chinese

The

Alternative plan

    To

Babel?

Shadow

    At night

We

Come

To

Rest

Because

Our

Shadow

Lies

Together

With the

Others

    And

Rests

Knotholes

    Knot-

Holes

Are

The

Stigmata

    Of

Woods

Decay

    As the

Soul

Is

Surrounded

By

Decay

And

Yet

    Is Cleaned

From it
