Complex Simplicity
A woman and her entire family
submitting to a voluntary search
of a neighbour’s child’s pet.
Permission regularly donated
from a CEO to his subordinates
before exercising his absolute rights.
Chewing of corn by the Leopard
to let the Lamb live
or a king’s drinking of his royal wine
skipping the taste-testing of his servants
in consideration to the value of their lives
are humility in a majestic charisma.
Rare is getting rarer in finding
people of such acts
but an exact style of these exhibitions
will command enormous loyalty
ten times more than china’s foot soldiers.
