…I laughed at the faces
of the simple-minded
who bowed their heads to
the future justification
in the afterlife
and I said,
they deserve a better reward
if they can only open
their eyes, and if they raise their heads
to look at the virginal dawn
and glance at the lissome girl
freed from the bonds of littleness
the smart ones were teaching them
I laughed at the faces
of the simple-minded and
I realized that I came to this world
early, and with only one concern:
the laughter of the child and
the stirring of the flower petals
I laughed at my daring destiny
before the moment I appeared on earth
to get drunk on the endlessness of the sky
and to admire the miracles of my mind
that came to stir the calm waters of the lake
my mind was giving birth to
immortal immortality.
