Poem by Li Min-Yong
He seeks the sky in the mirror,
Taps into the mysteries of the universe.
He discovers that the universe actually resides within the clouds,
And travels with them,
Seeking the world's landscapes.
He finds that the world is right here, present.
Dreams are real; reality is a dream.
Existence lies within non-existence,
Non-existence within existence.
A single thought strikes the square inch,
A moment dwells within a lifespan.
The positive and the negative,
All contained within.
