AEROPLANE
--after Yun Dongju
The propeller on his head
is whirling
around -- faster than a vane.
But once high in air
the propeller turns slower
than when he's on the ground.
Maybe he's short of breath.
Aeroplane --
cannot flutter his wings
and glide like a bird --
and he is always shouting.
Perhaps he's short-winded.
