a variable constant




In the old days a poet once said
by Ko Un

In the old days a poet once said
our nation is destroyed

yet the mountains and rivers survive

Today's poet says
the mountains and rivers are destroyed
yet our nation survives

Tomorrow's poet will say
the mountains and rivers are destroyed
our nation is destroyed and Alas!
you and I are completely destroyed
