Illusion and reality

Yancong Liu 2003 (HuBei)

Dull knives cleave the gray clouds
The rain that pours down, gathers into the shadow of your life

We are worms in a maze, crawling with difficulty
There is no starting point and no ending point
The ordinary plot cycle makes up our life
Unreal
Is the only reality

About this poem
