For Clematis Vines
Yonah Jeong Jun 14
last fall
climbed the old red wall
very small
a bud of persistence hanging in thin air
I saw it by the window
and winter came
without a chance to see the leaves and flowers
began to wither
pulled down the blinds and curtains
forgot about it
and welcomed the new year
spring passed
summer, one day
passed by the fence
on the mosquito net
bright and clear green
power of purification was seen
bowing in the air
friendship of coexistence
stuck to the cold glass window
with a soft tape
poor and broad-minded
I see your
phenomenal vitality.

Joy of tree comes from fruit

Strength of Human is gained by love

I chant fingers of love
like trees in the wood

I paint chains of love

Masterpieces are born by breaking the rules, and it's up to the reader, not the writer, to nurture them. Because the rules are not made by the writer, but by the reader. But breaking the rules doesn't mean you didn't follow them, it just means you don't need them.

It is wandering youth

Longing 2
Yonah Jeong Dec 2024
eggs cooked
on the asphalt road
fighting off the drowsiness
crossing over the center line
ignoring the stop sign
running
and when I'm done
with the dangerous
i pull into the parking lot
I can smile
what it is.

The Gravity of Love
Yonah Jeong Jan 4
Sea water
Why doesn't it spill out into space
in front of me
and stay here?
strongly flow but
shouldn't it overflow?

Love water
Why doesn't it spill out into you
In front of you
and stay there?
strongly flow but
shouldn't it overflow?

Doesn't it hurt, even though they are separations?

about my wife
Yonah Jeong Dec 2024
From the morning
My wife's eyes are red
She was always bright
Now her laugh is faint
Richard and Karen are fighting
Save money on cosmetics
She can't even go to the concert
Worried about car payment
She can't buy their parents' medicine
even tonight
She think about money
beside her
I feel
My wife is not a woman
who only knows money
after knowing the fact
I shake my heart
and pull back the black veil
between her and me.

even if i threw

i pictured a hating face
and
shot while staring

i hit
a perfect score!

Caramel
Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
stale caramel
squashed
pressed
as thin as it gets
one with the vinyl
old caramel
to eat
no matter how hard I try
It doesn't peel off
eventually,
I threw the whole thing
in the bin
like a useless word
that an unknown poet
never knew.
I lie down and look at the sky
I count the stars with

I walk and look at the forest
I count the trees of

I stand and look at the stream
I count the pebbles under

I ride in a car and look at the roads
I count the traffic lights on

I dance and look at the birds.
I count the songs among.

A Riddle 5

That she loved me
That I approached her
That we sat together
on a bench in the playground
listening to a song
That we couldn't hide ourselves
That we became each other's shadow.

My Joy, My Hope
Yonah Jeong Jun 23
Reaching out and
catching flowers outside the fence
dreaming of them
with the caught petals
there are also bees and butterflies

Regardless of him there
time passes
seasons change
the world is changing

My heart is breaking
but this place is also
daisies
humblebees
dragonflies
time clock
spring summer falls winter
regardless of the world
I am keeping myself

Can I make it to the end.

you are going to lose”.

The Endless Lament
Yonah Jeong Apr 7
Endless love
in regret of living too easily
a sigh like an exploding volcano
the lava of tears flowed
swallowing ***** and Gomorrah
their downfall
In the hungry days
the cornbread and the joy of love
came with endless sighs
red carpet was soaked
Your Laments
blocking the Barricade Street
that does not fall alone
is approaching from over there...

"Honey, look here
you hand-washed your clothes
and they smell bad
It's too much..."

"Yeah, okay

“Thank you.”

"If I had smelled that smell
I wouldn't have been so
already"

You are the mountain

We met

As time passed

You are the sea

We met again

Where you and I met
Became a meadow.

Knight of Night
Yonah Jeong Apr 10
Looking for you
King of Night
Made a lake with moonlight
And colored the forest
The shadow of the Yes Man
whose hungry courage
Disappeared
Knight of Night
In a coffee cup stained
With sparkling stories
Busy listening
The sound of the legendary stream
Flowing between the cobble stones
Finally I find it.

Love's indifference
Yonah Jeong Jan 13
I bought a dehumidifier
because my house is very humid
and it gets moldy easily
and I cough a lot
The air is heavy
so I decided
I bought a dehumidifier
for a few months
it worked great
every single day
I dumped out a bucket of water
But then one day
it stopped working properly
a little more time passed
it stopped working completely
after a day or two or three
it was the same
I pressed several buttons
it was the same
I thought the machine was broken
I thought I was going to throw it away
because it's a waste of money
i didn't do that
power seemed to be fine
then one day
I was taking a bath and left the bathroom door open
no one was home
so I guess that's what I did
I got out of the bath
I turned off the shower
I pulled back the curtain of the Gogh's picture
I heard the dehumidifier running
a number indicating it's level
with a red warning
That's right.

Oh Happy Day 1
Yonah Jeong Jul 16
Before I got married
when we were dating
we'd stop by a bookstore
staff said,
"are you a sibling?"
I laughed because it felt good

Actually
my wife is very nice looking
I am real ugly

During 35 years of marriage
I never heard anyone say that
Then today
I met a farmer couple in the parking lot
and we got to talking about
this and that, i said,

“You have to work
as if there is no blood or tears
for your customers.”

After both of them heard my message
they looked back and forth
between me and my wife and said
"You two look a lot alike"
what a great feeling!
This time my wife said smiling

"Love leads to acceptance together
unconditionally"

and that's why I thought
"Oh Happy Day".

What love looks like
Yonah Jeong Dec 2024
who knows life
and show life?

who can see the mountain
and move a mountain?

who can touch a desert
and make it bloom?

controlling all these things

hot with water
cools like water
flows like water

it is red love
like blood
a love that waxes and wanes.

about Democracy
Yonah Jeong Jan 4
Some people say
“Equality is worthless”
Some say
“Only equality is worth anything”
Some say
“Freedom is worthless”
Some say
“Only freedom is worth anything”
Some say
“There is nothing sacred in the equality”
Some say
“Only equality is sacred”
Some say
“There is nothing scared in the freedom”
Some say
“Only freedom is sacred”

I say
“In all equality lies the sacredness of freedom”
"In all freedom lies the sacredness of equality"
"These two can hug in sadness or in joy, and in it".

That is life
Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
Look around this world
do not try to see
what you don't see
they are not there

Look around this world
do not try to have
what you do not have
they are not there

Look around this world
what you do not see
do not try to see
they are not here

Look around the world
what you do not have
do not try to have
they are not here

If you don't do so
you are wasting time
you are killing time

I am sure
you don't need them always
experiment with it.

Robin ran
to that city
the most famous place
that everyone wants to visit
as Robin headed toward this city
that everyone knows
Robin thought to
"There are many people there
There are many cars there
The buildings there are tall
There are only geniuses there
All races are there
All the money is there"
Robin approached it
with fear and wonder
After living there for several years
Robin encountered people, cars, buildings, geniuses, all races, and all the money.
but Today
Robin fled from that place.

Reborn April

A gentle spring
A spring with nothing to see
A spring of blazing summer
A spring of longing winter
spring spring spring
A spring that lost love
A spring that neither gains nor loses love
A spring that has become cruel
April, a burning April
A burning Workshop
A spring for the vital Lif.
