Vampire

I can’t recall when it all started
to enjoy biting another
and to be bitten.
All I did was to walk the walk
that was dark when it was dark
and walk the bright one when it was bright
yet there’s that lingering feeling
as if my hands are not clean before this meal.

언제부터인지는 기억이 나지 않는다.
서로를 물어 뜯고
물어 뜯기는걸 즐기게 되었는지는.
어두울 때는 어두운 길을 걷고
밝을 때는 밝은 길을 걸었을 뿐인데
걷고 난 후엔 무엇인가 바뀐 느낌이
식사전 손씻지 않은 찝찝함처럼 있다.
