Poem Artwork



Your home is the universe.
The sky is its eternal roof.
The earth is its soft floor.
A flat rock is your only bed.
The night wind is your blanket.
An outer space palace is your dream.
A river bank is your priceless bathroom.
The moon is the only lover you possess.
A loaf of bread is what you must eat.
A drop of river water is your drink.
The hands of God are your guides.
The moonlight is your sole torch.
The stars in the sky are your fellows.
Night frogs are your free musicians.
Birds are your faithful gifted poets.
Roosters are your free alarm clocks.
And a prison is never your dream.

Living in the wild for 250,000 years. In the last 200 or so, changing all that. Was it for the better?

I have lived your poem, except that in my case prison was certainly never a dream, it was a reality
