crossing a traffic light
down intersection
buried in a ravine
leaning against the Valley hospital window
looking down
gray
black
brown
No matter how price money
cars are waiting
at a red light
after a while
cars are moving
time is running again
darkness falls
Night comes
lights come on
following the enduring sadness
unable to work
the day will come someday
While thinking
I turn away.

It is not vain
for tomorrow
if
we live like ants
today.
Yonah Jeong Mar 29
with moments
alive thought about
historical fragments of
Upheaval
tugged by basement of
walker of worker:
the ants in the desert
gently...

On a semicircular table

single orange
Stay with me all night
by the recovering wife

The stem was cut off
and the leaves have withered
but the yellow skin is still

Enduring pain and disappearance
With a quiet voice
I present the day.

Walls of division and anger
hammer sleeping in the basement
so it doesn't rust
Like a duck's ***
May your poem words
waddling around
and walk
let there be
a hammer breaks down a house
but only tear down the walls
and not break the home of house
Sing a song of the crumbling walls
and I hope your party song
to spread far and wide
let us see a new world beyond the walls
following the song
As a duck finds a worm
in the grass and eats them
hatred between people
eat them so be strong
and tear down your walls
It's your hammer, your immunity.

The value of thing
are all different

The value of people
are all the same.

Comparing things to things
Advantage
outweigh disadvantage

Comparing human to human
Disadvantage
outweigh advantage.
