The Feeling of Being Lost


:::: ZuoZhou, 2011

Do you remember the good

Old days before computer,

Cell phones, GPS, etc.?

The days when there were

Fewer cars on the road, less

Noise in your head?

And how easily we got lost!

Makeshift signs written

In cumbersome strokes;

Small rock piles indicating

A secret trail . . . .

We were buried in trees,

Grass, songs of insects

And birds . . . .

We were driving in circles

Looking for a destination

On the map, but in nature

There were no straight lines,

No names in the sky.

We were worried that

We got lost. We were tight

On time, fuel, money . . . .

But we weren't aware of the fact

That we were driving

In circles in the middle

Of Paradise.
