Today

RalphLeave a comment

I did live today to my full potential
thanks to that, I remembered our days
days where we walked slowly together
talking about our dreams
and occasional dance we did together
in a warm haven of ours
oblivious to the world outside
smooth, soft, and slow
and when our eyes were open
crystal clear sun rays would tickle
world slowly awaken and reborn

오늘 하루 열심히 살았어요
덕분에 그대와의 좋은 기억이 났어요
세상이 어떻게 돌아가던
우리만의 아늑함 속에
느리게 추던 춤이 생각나요

Thank you

we can’t ignore we live in a selfish world
it is rather virtuous to be self-interested
not because of bitter reasons
but because when you walk the walk
the path so tortuous and lonesome,
in the end of long tunnel, there might be light
perchance collision of shooting stars
the explosive beginning of all
and I am grateful for you
to have walked the walk
and to collide with me
here and now

Scene 8

RalphLeave a comment

I walked through a dark empty silent road
as heavy snow fell from dark winter night sky
I remember the seething anger I bore
but not what I was angry for
too proud to make a scene, I walked in silence
hoping the road has long enough distance
to walk the talk in my head
listening to white snow crunching under the feet

나는 떳떳하게 말 할 수 있다.
이미 버텨 왔고 앞으로도 버틸것이고
나는 내가 옳다고 믿는 것을 지킬것이라고.
부족한 나지만 손가락 하나 움직일 수 있는 한
나는 앞으로 나아갈 거라고.
I can say without a hint of guilt:
I’ve withstood all, and will continue to do so
I’ll defend what I believe to be principles
against all odds, I’ll continue on as long as I can move,
I’ll continue to walk the walk.

Hi

RalphLeave a comment

hi it’s good to see you again
it’s unfortunate to meet in this moment
too coincidental and easily mistakable
but I say the truth plainly: nothing happened.
if you want to leave, feel free to.
of course I will miss you
but if it is not meant to be, let it be
perhaps it’s a price I pay for one of past sins
it is an honor to have met you
you’ve inspired me with your brilliance and charisma found in leader of truth
still,
it is my hope to see you again.
if ever, will I get a chance, I’ll hold onto it as dearly as I can
for it means more than ‘un million de bagels’
parce que it is Spring, after all.

A thousand mile walk

RalphLeave a comment

I took the first step
then, the next moment
I found myself in a tunnel
walking steadily in a puzzle.
calm, peaceful, azure air dawned overhead
like a sponge soaking in a summer bath
solemn solitude, dignified repose
slowly, and surely, the sun sets apropos
promising glistening dews of morning
talking a light walk into the darkness, humming

Shedding

RalphLeave a comment

have you no fear of loneliness?
then perhaps, people shedding is your thing.
shedding away people who don’t
see you as you are,
or do see you as you are,
and choose to severe ties anyways

like a meteor shedding away
impure addendums in stratosphere
gliding ever faster, with an ease,
exploding every second with peace

live your life the way you can
let the stars collide
be that as it may turn into a star
or a black hole engulfing all

Crystals

RalphLeave a comment

Sun’s brightly shining high in the stratosphere,

whitening atmosphere all around the horizon.

 

bent over, towards the dirt and dust where I stand,

I found buddings, peculiar buddings.

 

I kneeled, crouched, and pushing my face an inch away from the

wholesome dirt, that fresh grocery smelly dirt,

and screened a pebble-like dirt that looked like a mountain.

 

I then saw a white crystals, shining like glaciers of nowhere,

shining as gloriously as the world’s theirs.

 

I marveled.

I blinked.

It was still there.

 

I stretched my trunk,

pushed the dirty-earth away from myself,

and got on my feet,

the earth-dirt-crystal safely far away from myself.

 

I took a breath in,

squinted at the sharp white sun above,

and then a dotted point on a horizon.

 

I let out my breath,

dragged my feet towards an endlessness,

leaving trails of white crystals.
