Fog

staring at my thoughts so clearly for so long
distraction start smelling sweeter
whiff of a movie, flash of comic strips
worlds fly by and a vacuum settles in mind
staring at these dogs closing by
I wonder if there is a way to stay clear of them
then I stood by the top of the hill
as the sunset and sky cleared
for a moment there was an awe
and in gratitude I found my heart lightened.

Distraction

walking between dream and what reality is
became a coin flip at a whim
a clever mice with a veil over rhino’s eyes
leads it astray an honest one’s mind
but rise again
regardless of shame, regret and pain
rise again and march
march towards a better day
keep your chin up with a humble heart
we’ll see what comes at the end of the day

아무리 집중하기 힘들더라도
주저 앉지 않길 바라
다시 일어나서
더 나은 미래 향해 나아가자.
