Reminiscence

I see

neither a ship nor a sea!

Only the murmuring sound awakens me

from the deep of my dauntless dream!

The bird of paradise blooms time and again;

the sacred serpent comes and goes back!

As I lost my watch thousand nights before-

It’s now uncertain to find the certain date

when I was filled in full

with nothing but some venom…
