    About this ebook

    One hundred jewel-like short poems with one hundred simple abstract paintings. Some poems are so pared that the bodies are even shorter than the titles. Others consist of several broken words and sentences, which allows the readers’ philosophy to flow with imagination. And all the poems are written for the purpose of stirring your intrinsic happiness from sleep.

    Everything is a part of your universal dream. Money, love, family, friends, fame, loss and gain will come and go in the course of time. But happiness is always at the base of your existence waiting for you to acknowledge the truth of it.

    These one hundred poems and paintings will navigate you to the purest spring, where you can refresh the relationship between you and every entity.

      Summer: A Love Story

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life
