come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
only too late we find out
how we act upon others
does not reflect who they are
but who we are.
before you realize,
all the treasures are swept away
and you are left with a photo
of yourself of how you treated them.
so be aware of how you treat others.

thin glass wall divides the same world
a harmonious play on surface
a calculating fight on the other
all happening under the same pretence
should you ask me to tell the difference
between a jovial circus in a dark subway underground
and dark circles under child’s eye at playground
I’d ask you to stare at the nearest mirror
and ask yourself the question

A flower blossomed in between a crevasse in a concrete sidewalk. Blue-purple smiled at me and I smiled back at its petite petals. The wind was clear, and the sky was cool. I was thankful for this happenchance to meet her.
A pair of mysterious stones were walking by, have a serious conversation in whispers amongst themselves. I respectfully circumvented around their path, letting them go on with their journey. They stopped and curiously stared at me. I paid them no mind; I rushed onto the path that I was called to.
Three dogs were strolling by. One was barking and following the other two. They all seemed to be in a genial mood. A group of lamb just stared curiously at me as they waited for the dogs to pass by. I felt proud one moment, then ashamed. Such vainglory is such a chagrin. I once again leap onto the unknown.
Spiegel im spiegel.

Let if fall, let it rain,
Swords of mirror falling from shiny sky
Plummeting, revealing each sins,
Sharp, cold, and electric. It is unstoppable.
Ah, when will it stop.
Exhausted in heat and pain,
One more prayer is whispered.
