36) Tour Guide


       Wolran Kim


 

Ladies and gentlemen

Today is the moment right after Creation

I am going to name all the things on the earth

I will take care of this shaking world

I will be the oasis while we tour the desert

I will be the creator while we go on safari

A journey of creation runs over the thirsty land

Always ending at a strange hotel room

But you’ll remember wild animals only by the name I named them

Such as Greenland’s Inuit, with no roads between villages

I can fly or swim without any direction

Ok, look

A musk ox jumps out only from where I point

 

Because he must sustain 65 mph on two legs with a microphone

The pain of creation comes from his back,

His dream is to visit the named lands

With his wife and two kids who tour a small house everyday

Without microphones, without tips, without a name list

On very old roads that used to be recreated everyday
