If I were a poet,

If I were a poet,
Instead of thinking and talking about what form or color of a wind is,
I would be watching, seeing, and understanding what form or color of my ignorance, anger, greed or desire, arrogance... that covers the relationship between myself and my relatives, friends, co-workers, teachers, leaders...in the society or organization.

The 'ego', the 'self' or the 'me' would be reflected to the utmost in the mirror of this kind of relationship.
