Bamboo and Glass

Each of us is half made of glass
Easily cracked and broken into pieces by the slightest tremor
The remaining half is bamboo
Standing on the earth uprightly and aiming to grow towards the sun

The crashed glass scattered lengthwise, widthwise and across
The straight figure of bamboo
Together, forms a scene for a while

From time to time, the shape moves and changes
Sometimes the bamboo is buried in the chaotic light ametropia of glass
Occasionally the bamboo reveals its entire figure

It is at such time when the bamboo is clearly seen
Definite words break from our hearts
