Poem: Clinging to Delusion

2003-07-15

Mortals blinded by delusion,
when right is wrong and wrong is right;
unable to see through the maze,
bewildered by the enormous haze.

The righteous Fa is slandered,
right and wrong are turned upside down;
no one dares to raise his voice,
lest he lose his trivial trinkets.

Dafa disciples, with compassion,
provide light to those blinded;
some scoff at the helpers,
some, it seems, prefer to be blind.

Sadness fills my heart,
some refuse to change;
soon it may be too late,
salvation or destruction, one step away.

-- Written in sadness after making phone calls to some department offices in China --
