Safe World

I miss the time
When I cruised the oceans with my loved ones,
And the cruise sank.
I miss the time
When I was desperate to escape,
so I leaped into the icy cold water
and suffered no sickness,
While realizing that the cruise belonged to my neighbor.

It was a time
When leaping out of a ship was equal to suicide,
Although I was trying to save myself.
A group of policemen apprehended me
Simply for doing so.
I did not hate them
Because I knew that there was delicious food at home.

There was a time
When I came across a piece of paper;
An indecipherable poem was written on it.
I handed it to the very policemen who apprehended me,
One man interpreted it.
He claimed that it meant nothing.
However, I have already uncovered its hidden meaning;
He could not understand it
Because he was one of my neighbours.

While in custody,
I wanted to make a phone call to my loved ones,
But all my loved ones were with my neighbor.

When I woke up, I was in my high school;
A competition was held there.
I was one of the participants
Although I did not remember signing up.
I did not know what to do,
So I danced.
I became famous.

I saw an adulterous politician queuing up
To buy cheap food in a high-class restaurant.
I lined up behind him,
While my loved ones went away for awhile.
I saw the mother of a stranger;
She was very rude;
She vulgarly scolded her own plate of food.
In my heart, I hated her,
But she understood my heart before I spoke,
And warned me not to underestimate her.
