Swamps








Full of excitement, you walk the crooked path in the forest to see swamps.
To your surprise, you come across a green snake.
It slides away as though you were not even here.
What astonishes you more is the delusion.
Sunlight drifts on the water, shining brightly.
“It is an ocean!” you think.
You don’t feel damp or smell any strange, undistinguished gas at all.
Dead lily pads leave traces for you everywhere.
Fish submerges in deep water.
The sun carries declined, broken branches of withered trees in this huge, endless ocean.
