while some

ugly fish

carrying them

to the other

side

作舟诗集 回复 悄悄话 thanks, zf!!

i find myself getting tired of all the pretentious seriousness in writing, not just others' ... myself included ....

it has to feel real and right when right writes "serious" stuff.....at least for oneself.....

poetry, like other kinds of art form, should be fun to read, writie, i think...

that was why i was attracted by Henry Miller's style of writing .... his books are full of black springs, but his sense of humor/optimism helped him deal with the dark side of humanity.....
z.f. 回复 悄悄话 I really like the Humor here:

z.f. 回复 悄悄话 on a tree
on a hill
lived a bird that would not sleep.

“I’m not tired,” Bird said.

“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
...

“B-u-t I’m n-o-t t-i-r-e-d...”

(~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

one day

it woke
wet
in the sun

...

“I’m not t-i-r-e-d,” Bird said.

“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
...

“But I’m not tired!!!”
