Korea Poems

South Korea’s Liberation

South Korea’s thirteenth guide, who rode Korea as his chariot 
Only for six breathes, guided by the thirteenth star of Iscariot 
Under the hoofs, he defiled the white flag, as yin and yang turned again 
The slave of Seokga, the demiurge of sinful men 
Hungry ghost of Chun Doo-hwan, the cornerstone of the people's burden

Korean Winter Blues

Korean Winter Blues


Korean Winter Blues

Korean winters 
Are shorter than before
Impact of climate change

Can get very cold
As Siberian winds
Blow in from Russia

Putting the whole country
Under a deep freeze
Polar vortex 

It does not snow
Too much
Except in the mountains 
The coldest day
I ever experienced
Was in Korea 
Back in 1979

The AFKN radio announcer
Said it was minus 70
That morning.
	

Eat All You Want

Chinese trollers
Cranes and pulleys motor oil saliva
Fishhook cockroach antennas dipped to the oceans
Thousands of sailing creepy crawlers
Bandits with razors

Cross the boundless seas
Devours crumbs of every kind of confiscated fish
Left to crawl or swim on the ocean floor

The hulls share their creaking space
With bunks for 20-year-old sailor slaves
Signed on
Then denied Port for up to three years

land of k Beauty

I live in Korea
The land of plastic surgery
K beauty products.

Korean women are 
Among the most beautiful 
Women in the world.

The cult of the beautiful
Everywhere you go
You see beautiful women
And men on the street,

And I realized I married 
The most beautiful woman
In the world, 

When I met and married
My Dream lady.

Noisy Korea Now My Home

When I first came 
To South Korea in 1979
To do my Peace Corps duty
In a rural country town,

I thought that the old name
Of Korea
“the land of the morning calm”
Was absurd.

Korea was a noisy place
From early morning on.

Cars, horns, radio TV blaring
People talking to crowds everywhere
At night people drink and dine.

And loudspeakers
 Blasting you awake
At 6

Springtime Flowers Blooming Love 


Springtime in Korea

near the international airport in Incheon 
with the love of my life by my side.

Enjoying the Flowering Trees
The snowing apple trees, cherry blossoms
pear blossoms. the purple azaleas, the anemone, 
the buttercups, the daffodils, the magnolia, 
the  scotch bloom, the tulips, 
the wildflowers in

WHY PRESIDENT KIM JONG CRIED PUBLICLY

why this strong man Kim Jong cried? 
who can resist pains? 

as President Kim Jong
saw his population decreasing,
he was crying in front 
of the group of 
some women. 

pleasing them
to give birth to more kids 
to avoid some challenges
in the future. 

many women of North
Korea were touched by his speech 
and also cried.

Cursed Korea of the North

Once the green land of morning calm and high serenity
Soon waved the blood red flag, stained with the false words “We will soon be free”
Now a grey, barren mountain swallowed by Yaldabaoth’s sea

Lazy Guys In White House

Are there lazy guys in The White House?
Let’s pick your loudest ‘’ Yes’’ or ‘’No’’
And could they World Peace Moves a bit douse 
I would wait for a ‘’ Speak on’’ or ‘’ Go.’’

For the first, Russians could one serve ‘’ Yes,’’
For the second ‘’Simply forget it;’’
From North Korea ‘’ Madness to just guess,’’
For the

South Korea Spring

In this city,
concrete and glass,
ancient temples,
and hidden parks,
on this river
were made our schemes
to break with tradition,
with K-Pop dreams.

Ajoomas walk here,
comfortably clothed,
in western styles,
young beauties pose,
taking photos
under the trees,
couples strolling
in the breeze.

The sound of windchimes
fills the air
and you laugh
and toss your raven hair,
follow the clouds
of blossoms, pink-white,
hypnotic fragrance
through the night.

Visit To Jade Garden Korea

Visit to Jade Garden
Visiting Jade Garden
Nar Chungcheong, South Korea
On a beautiful spring day,

The cherry trees were in full flower
Pink and white petals
The scent of cherry trees in the air.

Other trees just starting to bloom 
Red, yellow and white tulips
Beginning to bloom. 

The sounds of spring all around
Birds singing
People walking about.

Talking to one another 
As they

Sunsets of Love

My favorite time of day
Is sunset 
As the sun begins to set,

I pour a glass of wine for my wife 
Or sometimes rum or whiskey
And sit down to dinner.

Drinking our drink
While watching the sunset, 
Over the western sea.

Sometimes, we take a walk 
At sunset and watch the sun 
Sink beneath the west sea
Off of Yeoungjong

Walking Along the Korean Winter Beach

Walking along the winter
 Korean beach,
With the love of my life
By my side,

She looks at me
With red hot love 
Flames shooting 
From her black eyes,

Melting away my heart 
Driving out the cold 
of the winter beach.

Launch Lunch

North Korea launched F U-2
But it headed toward Peru!
Said Xi Jinping,
"That's quite some sting
For the want of a tighter screw!"

North Korea

His eyes grow cold as his hair crawls down his shirt to his spoon, into his cabbage water. 
He cries inside, for his innocence lost, for who this will make him become….for what he cannot have. 
 Inhumane, he is like cattle and he is branded.
 Unjust, unknown, he whispers “please…” and they see him….”Stupid
