I am a pastor, a writer of various genres such as poetry writing and essay literary criticism.
However, when retiring from the ministry and helping small churches, it is often heartbreaking to see the difficulties of poor neighbors, and often it is sad that there is no power to help them outside of prayer.

Choi Paul Yearn

what should I singing today and what should I preach?
Rich people, enjoying astronomical dividend income
are used to ignore and indifferent to the poverty
so the poet sings to the empty sky like the blind's flute.
The leaves of the sigh and moan are piled up and rotten

for those who are in the depths of such despair
