Poem Artwork

I was drunk, half asleep,

Thru the whole half-day,

Till livelong noon. . .

Hearing that the funfair

Soon be gone, I hurried

On my way downhill

To be on time in the place

They called “Red Hole.”

In a green bamboo grove

I came across an old monk

With whom I played draughts,

One set after another,

And with whom I chatted

So leisurely and so at ease

That one more half-day

Insensibly passed away,

Without leaving a shade

On my intoxicated soul.

Appropriately named, the "Red Hole" is certainly a place where one can lose time while inebriated. Many have done so.

A day can fly by just like that without us knowing. Time does fly by, especially when one is intoxicated.
