The Spear and The Woods – To: Amanda

why? ho! see me thought the spear flying abroad 
 
driving forward willing to spring up from the earth 
 
to become a great and shining one tower with pride, it's right
 
to show, he's worked a lot for it with blood and bones 
 
building up a garden with Bai Yu Lan (Magnolia) being in May 
 
smiles to me like the mighty everest with the birds around 
 
like a crown showing his majestieness without a move 
 
to be obsessed by himself, being a hypocrite

is growing from a spear to a tower, from a small garden 
 
to a big forest, to proof that you get what you want 
 
if you give yourself for it, you’ll become happy volcanoes won’t daunt
