Writing on Nature -- Moth


Moth

 I did not hate you until you left my beloved woolen top

with so many holes that reflects a galaxy in the sky.

I like your lightness and artistic movements as you flapping across sitting room and bedrooms

You look likes a fairy but not as fair as I wish.

I am like an inspector for the crime scenes

And definitely my urgent job is to catch you. 

There I found you hoovering on my white wall

So obvious to me that you must be color-blind

With your wings at your back

It seems you are waiting for your chance

A chance to mate

Or a chance to bite

Or waiting to escape.
But I could not let you go

despite you are so vulnerable

I just could not.

You wings becomes a line of grey powder as I squeezed you

ending your premature death.

I am a murder with a corpse in my finger

My fairy, you should not come to human place 

It is your fault that leave me such a name.

Monologue -- Alice in Wonderland

"Alice in Wonderland"   – I don’t know who wrote the book with this title, as if Alice is and will forever be enjoying her childhood in a wonderful place full of woodlands, holding a toy bear in her arm.  I bet no  grown-up would like to go through what I did, felling into the hole of a tree trunk and subsequently drinking tea and eating cake with a bunch of animals and meeting strange people in an underground world. I did not know why my story has bewildered so many people, but that is definitely not to me.  Once, I remembered seeing you, Alice,  my enthusiastic reader who visited England from the East. You walked  along  a small street in Oxford and came into a small museum particularly to look for me. I saw you picking up that red book full of illustrations about me and my friends.  Perhaps you think I did not know why you bought the book.  You bought it because you have never seen an oak tree an wonder how someone wil...
