MORNING SEA


Let me stand here.

Let me look at nature for a while

the morning sea and the cloudless sky,

bright blue and yellow bank, everything, beautifully and profusely lit-up.

Let me stand here.

And let me fool myself that I see them

(I saw them indeed for a moment when I first stood here)

and let me not bring here my fantasies, my idols of pleasure.
