(Liu Lizhi’s Poem)
Pain
How many leaves are counted off in a single day
By a tree with sense of pain ?
How many days needed to count a tree naked?
How many hairs are counted white in a single year
By a head with sense of pain?
How many years needed to count a head white?
The circular saw of time chops into.
How many sawteeth work silently?
How many circles needed to saw off the sense of pain?
