39) No Trap


       Wolran Kim


 

As if a relic of war

I thought there would be a hidden mine somewhere

The enemies’ disruption is safe outside of the network

Then it falls asleep only on an inch of error

No matter how crazy going over the speed limit

I thought I’d never be free from the dense mine field

No matter how nice the body of a shiny new car

I thought I would fall and tumble all about someday

Then, I would be transported somewhere

I thought the vulnerability of the checkpoint

That they passed only by checking their loads

Would be revealed one by one in front of my eyes someday

I thought the psychological clever trick, using peaceful daily life

Would tighten my loose neck someday

There will be a few casualties like in training

And then, I thought that would be the same as climbing

The vertical height forever under the cliff

Huh, Look at this! It is very simple. Such a dull life.

Ruminating, it is also narrow minded with no comparison

Just looking like a collection of problems

That is a bestselling book from a high hitting ratio

Just looking like an old exam

That repeats existing questions tediously

In front of a life which becomes a way without any intent

The way appears even through the fog if I stare clearly

Pupils get bigger in the darkness even before I see

It was a plain way, really

There was no trap, but I had made the trap myself
