No Siege on Me

「Boxer Rebellion siege in Peking」的圖片搜尋結果
Siege on Peking,
Boxers rebelling,
Or Paris surrounded 
by Prussians yelling.
Stalingrad,
where Nazis were had.
No one will harm me
for that I am glad
on the riverside,
With no enemy 
to be besieged by.
under this sheltering tree,
No need for fortifications 
or giving up an inch.
As lawn mowers approach 
getting louder, stronger,
No siege on me, 
so here I belong.
Rain may come,
the weather change,
but in no man’s way,
i will remain
from the world estranged.
Writing sweet words
on puffy clouds,
Invading my illusion
is not allowed.
