Poetry

Today again, though I was in Tokyo, by watching a video of Koguryo’s historic site filmed by Mr. Idaki Shin, I felt as if I had been to the land of Koguryo. I was blown by a wind of Koguryo and I wished to stay there forever. As I expressed my newly-born feeling of my life, I was amazed to see that my life was always paving a way for opening up my future. Whatever might happen, this expression of my internality made me acknowledge how my life demanded to live on, and an answer to any questions. Expression in language was indeed identical to one’s life. These days when I had time available, I checked and refilled poems I had created in various countries, including Japan, that I called “ Messages from Mother Earth”, as words have spontaneously come out to make a poem when I visited every historic place all over the world. I loudly narrated some of them at the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert, and I shed tears. A secret story buried underground was there. The other day I came across a sentence and was extremely surprised, as if my heart was jumping out of my life, that read that everything artificially made by humankind should be completely destroyed into a mountain of rubble. Now I swore that I would create a new system, and work that was true to the principles of life. After the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert held in Azerbaijan, I heard that the artificial framework of time made by man that had so far controlled us and caused much pain to our life was ended and a new time that was in harmony with nature was wide open to us. Indeed, since then I have experienced many times that the time frame of past, present and future has disappeared. Our deepest wishes as a human being were coming from a marvelous future. Now that a new time was provided, I would express newly-born wishes and move on forward.
