Sabaydii, Today, I have a free verse to share with you. It's called a sense of destiny with a question mark. ***** A sense of destiny? I look at myself in the mirror There! an old man staring back at me. He seems to say what did you do to yourself? your heart and mind are out of place. You forgot who you are, what is constituted of you, and why you are here. I... am so ashamed to look at myself. I know It's not the gun that can shut me up. It's not the dollar that can blind me. And it's not the bread that can make me forgetful. It's me myself, lacking a sense of destiny, I am just like a small boat floating aimlessly in the wide ocean. -- Hak phaang, Kongkeo Saycocie http://www.cs.sonoma.edu/~saycocie/sjdnews.html http://www.cs.sonoma.edu/~saycocie/Poem.html http://www.santarosa.edu/~ksaycoci/kongkeo.html
