One moment<br />

At night<br />

An owl sings<br />

As a <strong>poet</strong><br />

Reading a poem<br />

About motherl<strong>and</strong><br />

The sky<br />

Trembles again <strong>and</strong> again<br />

Suspicion splashes<br />

To the face of the moon<br />

How the moon that has<br />

neither h<strong>and</strong>s nor legs<br />

And is consisted<br />

of belly only<br />

Can be beautiful<br />
