Wandering freely,
Cheerfully pacing the void,
Coming and going --
Even candles in the wind
Briefly shed light on the path.

Chinese Whispers

Chinese whispers
up and down
round and round
spins
effortlessly
into unguarded
hollows
deceived
beginnings
ends at
destined
trickery.

It does not taste much like a cow
The Italian, "Ciao"
Is never highbrow
Yet either one help bed a Frau!

Not ALL, philosophers think.
All Japanese, all Chinese, all Indians…
Generalizing any group is ridiculous!

It reminds them of each other for sure

Spelled backwards reminds him of her!
