from the small window of the plane
he tried really hard
to adjust his focus
but was unable to make any sense
of the hazy poetry

until he was awakened
by the cough of an eight-year-old girl
and realized

painted with the black mist
spewed from her lung

* Due to air pollution, an 8-year-old girl has become the youngest known lung cancer patient in eastern China. -- Chicago Tribune, 2013.12.29

** "Hazy Poetry" (or "Misty Poetry" or "Obscure Poetry") is a term refers to the work of a group of young poets who reacted against the restrictions on art during the Cultural Revolution in China.
