Longyou Caves
best kept secret in China
I am laughing now
because all the secrets there are best kept
none of them ever get told
the Chinese people I know keep everything a secret
they are not loose-lipped like my relatives
best kept secret in China
Longyou Caves
twenty-four hundred chambers
chiseled out under a large waterway
with steps and pillars
intricate, detailed, amazing workmanship
who made them? Who lived there? No one will ever know.
