Korean Blues Crown of Sonnets I have been dealing? with Things Korean ?for almost 40 years now dealing ?with a once exotic land? now my second homeland ?first came to Korea? In the Peace Corps in Korea I ?went to Korea to find the woman? in search of the woman? who haunted my dreams? met the woman? fell in love with the woman ?From Korea who walked out my dreams? In an land still exotic In a land still exotic ?was a very exotic different land? and even now decades latter a new land? remains for most Americans? still a strange land exotic ?but much more known land ?in the US due to K drama, K Pop, Koreans? have become globally cool but still exotic? Many of my fellow Americans' ?may know a few people from Korea?a and some have served or lived in Korea ?but to most of the us Americans it remains over there still exotic? a strange Asian exotic land A strange Asian Exotic land? I fell in love that exotic land?a and now I spend half my time?l Living Korean time? half in the U.S. time? and due to the corona time? will be here for some time? and well Korea ?no longer an exotic land? as I am now just living in Korea? my thoughts half Korean? and even dream in Korean? so be it near the end of my time? I am back where I began Writer digest prompt write an exotic poem wrote my first crown of sonnet form too, and it mostly rhymes! go figure
