Heaven's
gate
At the end of the trail
The
peak of the mountain carries the sky
Like
a trophy
At
the end of the trail
In
the large opening
I
chase clouds with my stare
The
mountain submits to my carefree mood
His
pine trees hum hymns from all their pins
At
the end of the trail
The
light is milky and whispered by the clouds
The
air is scented but rarefied so
The
birds forgot their thrills
The
silence is so thick that the trees burst their juices out so
The
heaven opens a gate for submissions
Right
at the end of this trail
No
bells, no jingles
As
if you don't care, the winter settles in
lightly,
with all its flakes silently climbing the walls
Dark-red
skies are whispering snow
somewhere
is burning a soul
blankets
are spreading their warmth over the December earth
As
if you muted all fears, this night is flooding your bones
screeching
the joints in surprise
Shocked
you discover the signs of an old aged woman
whose
whole horizon is the snow, still white, below her eyes
Not
footprints yet, winter seems fairy tonight
White
reigns in leisure, silence smells like cinnamon
No
bells, no jingles, just snow
The
Icicle darts
The
white storm
The
snow fall
The
silence wall
Broken
by the harsh winds
The
winds with thousands of claws
Icicle
darts build a new architecture
Frostbite
spread up like blossoms in spring
A
white desert ravished by blizzard
A
map of lost and found
Seasons
Of
white storms
Of
snow falls
Of
silence walls
The
plot thickens...
Mad
man across the street,
That
I can cope with
But
pigeons without breaks
Without
a system of smoothly landing on my windows sill
Unbearable....
Every
morning my sweet dream
Is
irreparable broken by their bang on my window
Like
projectiles, these bullet pigeons
Stop
their flight smashing their well fed chests into my window.....
And
then they sing their love songs
I
suspect they act like that because they need someone to witness their
existence...
Like
we all do
