Summer is running away again. I hurry. Straddle. Search. for answers to fill the questions that will come. Cry: I'm from the jungle. And they leave me alone. In my palms, their crackling ****** lights   the way while I, child of democracy and tears Say: I want to love, not fear muffled beneath their brazen crackle. I a stubborn memory, barking up in a ****** language, rustling the quiet night with my foul tongue and ***** eyes: tinh yeu khong so hai. Like a twittering bird - good for no one's sake, existing for mercy. I cut my tongue. translate: love, not fear.
