Emerson, Emerson

again, place in my hand
the greatest of teachers' reminders
Emerson, Emerson
love me with your words 
with reminders of self reliance
just as nature, nature
makes waterfalls down man-made concrete
like waffle sculptures across the Han River

stay un-fetted
stay a seed of all and a follower of none
stay nowhere long and then move on
court the youth but be not concerned
how they feel you unnecessary
have no opinions of them
have none for those who put society above 
their natural feelings
teach them not who will not be taught
and be no model for anyone
Emerson, Emerson
words that America wasted
