The Bridge

Altın Yaprak
(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Antonio Liao)
the thundering rain
falls into the pain
do we need more love
to strengthen this glove?
the typhoon flood
smash all the good
do we need more care
to measure this scar?
crocodiles, sharks
climb to the village
to seek refugees
how precious their age?
lions, rhinoceros
march to the town
to search some foods
when the sun goes down
is there a distant gap
between the hunted ones
and the wilderness hunters?
we can't find it in the map
is there a crucial problem
between the teacher and student?
why there are so much urgency
and lies inside our heart of gem?
the darker days
will come to us
when sun no more rises
all existences become ashes
the sky turned
as red as blood
we stopped and leaned
feeling unspeakably tired
the personal anguish behind
the agonized figure is reduced
tongues of fire and crisis stretched
nature was screaming in our blood
the dangerous bridge
we all shall in a hurry pass by
can we do it with our edge
fulled with angry, envy, and anxiety?
(inspired by Edvard Munch's The Scream)
