    Walking through the dark night,
    my friend and me lost our ways—
    And, fell into a deep dry well.

    Groping through the darkness,
    our hands came across
    huge balls of thread.

    Our fingers
    vigorously, tirelessly
    moved through the thread
    throughout the night...

  • Eyes

    I opened my eyes

                and

                looked at the world—

    I closed my eyes

               and

               saw it.

  • Destination

    Descending from the sky
    a drop of rain
    asked the other:

                                Where
                                are
                                you
                                going
                                to
                                fall?

    The other replied:

                                Wherever
                                may
                                we
                                fall,
                                in
                                the
                                ocean
                                we
                                shall
                                meet
                                after
                                all!
