The river was lapping
lapping the sand
lapping against the takeoff of gulls
lapping on my heart
that has been yearning for peace
and for accommodating everything
The river was beating
beating the iron gate
beating against an artificial dam
as if a giant beast was roaring
attempting to break free from the chains
Fear suddenly filled my heart
there’s no monster
but I perceived the ambitions of human being
to devour the whole original world
and leave nothing
