"Quan" - in memory of RuiQuan
"Quan", a wonderful spelling
with many telling
The circle?
A head-spinning story where the ending
always meets the beginning
you never in
you never out
The power?
A forest fire that bares life and death
with wordless tongue and boneless teeth
you never gain
you never pain
...
Each telling is more or less a picture
I wonder
which one is your signature
Memory is exhausted between the pages
light dimming, musical rising
here comes the one I have searched for ages
A stream that collects tears
from the ancient tales
out of the tip of grasses
and the heart of rocks
you never boil
you never still
