About her 2
Yonah Jeong Apr 12
She
always hiding in the books
never appears to me
even if I laugh
even if I cry
even if I whisper
even if I happy
usually invisible
she comes to me
every time I write
it seems impossible also it is possible
because it belongs to her
starts to twinkle with stars
is love.

Aubade
Yonah Jeong Feb 11
water purifier
Ice fragments pouring
from the plastic box
and filling the cup
make a sound
becoming water
To be the blood of lovers
their songs sing
not to turn one
but the sacrificial passion
and an offering of love offered
by two of one.

Love sent me a letter
without paper

Our Publisher
Yonah Jeong Apr 24
I am correcting the poem
Afternoon April coming into the window
It was so beautiful
I couldn't help but go out

I sat in front of my desk again
Think about it

A famous writer or an unknown writer
Respecting together
Our publisher
Proud

Famous or unknown
Focusing on the writer
Our publisher
Lovely

When the time comes
Famous and unknown change seats
Knowing this wisdom
Our publisher is great

If I get a little bored
Borrowed from the library
Video movie, "The Walker"
I should see it once more.

my confession
Yonah Jeong Feb 13
I'm reminded of the poet's words,
“Keep money and honor away from you,”
and tonight
I'm tempted to indulge.
What a life without temptation?

The pinnacle of art
Yonah Jeong Sep 2024
Five-year-old May,
just starting to escape Autism,
comes to my side,
taps fingers on the aluminum trash can
next to old desk,
looks at me,
smiles,
and May says,
"DRUM".
Yonah Jeong Sep 2024
light flowing
right also streams
A day with write burning
distant fire
leaking out from the extinguished past
excitinng fire,
Even I weaken it
If I put it away
spreading gaily at night
YOU
SPARSELY clear
between the cracks
educating Day by Day,
life of lives,
Where is unwavering love?

a Snowy night
Yonah Jeong Feb 9
let's open the door
wire is heavy, and it becomes
a swinging rope.
sky becomes clouded with breath
streetlights are dim
NIGHT
neighbor's stairs are covered in snow
streets are quiet
snowflakes on my eyebrows
I blink my eyes
never talked about
before the neighbor's house
across the street
even in the old shovel sack
beautifully
just barely
snow is piling up
snowing night
without sound
absorbing the sound
like a curve, not a straight line
while dancing
that will fade away like youth
that will disappear like youth
flower-like flakes are coming.......

my hope
Yonah Jeong Dec 2024
when I rang the doorbell
heavy snow fell
and hid the paths of aloneness
having lost my way
I looked for a stone
and stepped on it
The snow melted
and showed me the path to take
beyond the end of the road
the islands of Privacy
I have to go there
and make the waves
without you.

A Hymn for Rain
Yonah Jeong May 10
Anyone can
about rain
can sing
take pictures of it
can paint
can write poetry
as a lost cloud
walk in the rain
without an umbrella
without you
But the rain is not the object
Rain works
for being to be love itself.
Yonah Jeong Jul 3
In the tempting world
to be a loser
someone's free ride
a song
the triangular triangle of time
a red colors
the emergency exit between
chosen silences
a wailing still
these tremors
beauty of empty cities
is ****** into sleep.

-from Franz Kafka

a Tortoise
Yonah Jeong Dec 2024
will try to fly no more
It will climb step by step

Giving up the top
and go down

Not by my will
I'll climb no more

In a world that goes round and round
I won't run like a squirrel

Without breaking down the walls
I'll crawl over it

To tear it down
is not to get rid of

I will lazy no more
Slowly. Very slowly I will find it

The refuge of love.

Hollowed out
Yonah Jeong Aug 2024
abandoned by the bank
one branch of the Lucky Tree
brought home
and
divided it into three parts
and then
filled three glass jars with clean water
and stuck them one by one
One day
Two days
Three days
one week
A month later
as luck
at the very top
sprouted from the top
again
A few days passed and
I was surprised
the center of the stem was hollowed out
And then
little by little,
it was becoming a leaf.

A little solitude
Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
small trees
in a field of yellow grass
Nearby
bending and
the shadows of old trees
curved and dried up
covering the grass
Over it
Emptiness flies
with the arrow of Vulcan
gray winds colors the sky
And a labor-exhausted man
sits down
with his right elbow on his left knee
and watches the hours
of the deepening nightmare
with someone else
among the scattering snowflakes.

A mission of literature
Yonah Jeong Sep 2024
all literature must be fact
just in different proportions
the rest of fiction
the facts become truth
to cintribute
only then
poems turn into
the oil of the light
of Reality:
the painful sighs of the world.

Eurasian Blue Tit

Blue-haired Blue wings
cold iron
yellow chest belly
meek
With momentum
two rivers rendezvous
in one sea
by faith
meeting of time and space
east meets west
appears to be Pantone
it is gazing into the future
They are the flight of encounters.

Spring's standing
Yonah Jeong Feb 3
Leaning
against a stony-faced window
covering the hardened little branches
disheveled cotton candy
coffee-colored trees
Below
holding hands with the calm times
there is you and me
Love is sprouting.

Deadwood, a Pine
Yonah Jeong Jun 25
The lowest places
petalless branches
stems dipped
in the deep blue expanse of the sea

Twisted, twisted into S
branches have bark
that becomes dirt
that becomes sand

Low cliffs
through the cracks
in the rocks
roots deep and burrowed

On the mountain just across the way
white and yellow
in the glorious sunlight,
a friend faces
and says good morning,
"this is the beginning".

my basement
Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
At that place
All kinds of junk are piled up
for decades,
my youth and
My old age is vibrating
secret garden
all flowers are in full
enduring the end of the world
time is saved
with my lip
with my ears
the breathing of my eyes
seesaw
love blossoms,
A new day on Earth is sprouting
my basement.
I am drawing the stairs
leading there.

Self-portrait for you
Yonah Jeong Jun 29
It comes from
not loving what you do, but from
pride in craving to accomplish

A clingy person
cannot love what he does
with prejudice
from the extreme of selfishness

It is impatience to reap without sowing

In the end
not being able to sob.

when open eyes
what you see is not love

when close eyes
what see is love

whether open eyes or close
what see is you alone.
