Another Mass Shooting
Another Mass Shooting
What's wrong with this country
Put your arms around the cities
Another horrific shooting
Another historical tragedy
Guns and bullets to destroy our lives
Innocent children have to see this
Our hearts goes out to the victims
Another church shooting targeted
With no morals
No fear of judgment
More bullets flying

Aglow
You may missed it, but you are
incandescently alive; a shooting star
at dusk-colored sky. Falling
into the atmosphere, first contact of
fresh air. Friction
wears you armor in blazing flame, highlight—
In the star-sown space, you
a knight descending into this earth
on your loyal mount that is
you, and stardust from unnamed planets
that you once drifted among
aimlessly—until inevitably gravity
from this earth hooked

Shooting Stars Are Exactly As You Are
Behind every person’s soul,
a universe quietly resides.
And I still find it strange
that despite that cosmic brilliance,
we circle back to fixate
on surface-level, fleeting things.
Things that could never touch
the depth of our own true radiance.
We never notice our own
beauty—isn’t that beautiful?

Interview with a Shooting Star
When the night is filled with questions,
and the sky is a jeweled blanket,
I sit on the deck of my water room,
listening to the waves flirt with stillness,
and the breeze ~ caressing the green of palm leaves ~
in an island of romance, where the heart sings
in sync with the music of nature.
In all that quietness,

Interview with a Shooting Star
I met a streak across the night,
a blaze of breath, a flash of flight.
A shooting star with silver flare
descended near, through whispered air.
I asked, “You fall so fast and bright—
what secrets do you steal from night?”
It flickered once, then shaped a voice
as

i only have one true wish to wish upon you,
I wish I could hold him in my arms as I look at you,
Shooting star,
I only have one true wish to wish upon you,
I wish he could hold me in his heart the way I hold you in mine.

An Elegy About a School Shooting
Prologue:
A new kid joins an already troubled elementary school
He sits alone on the first day, and no one dares to sit next to him
For if they dared, their social status would be reduced to a pile of rubble.
For a while everyone just left this kid alone, and no one dared to figure out the

A SHOOTING STAR AT CHRISTMAS
Walking early in the morning along the waning edges of a silent night
I saw the flash of a shooting star under the full moon shining bright.
And I thought how Christmas is like that star across the sky I saw soar
over in an instant…and each one a little different than the one before.
It’s a moment if

Shooting Star
Attractive and luminous,
Burning on your golden path
Like an adamant against the sun.
Symbolising every entity,
Caught up in spontaneity
Perusing the conscientious.
Uninspired to aspire
Yet inspiring the phenomenal,
As they claim all of what you grant.
During your death, they wield smiles
Making wishes of a lifetime
While you dance in cosmic time.

It was not too long until they had got so very far.
Sooner or later, their love burns into various shooting stars.
