Poem - Halt Station, Poet - Lee, Hee Kuk (South Korea)

Halt Station
Lee, Hee Kuk

Several layers of silence lie like railroad sleeper tie
This place
Time which does not look back
There is only a disappearing direction to look at for a long time
When the railroad track bent into a corner,
The corner of the sky is torn apart,
The space is wet
Season of deafness,
Time is deaf
The expression of spring that has come back from a long way,
yellow on the railroad
At what point did the folded heart transfer?
Those who left never returned
Azaleas from the back mountain wave red hands
Another person passes by at the halt station of memories
There is a wrinkled time that do not straighten out
