"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.

Mist in the Dream

Mist in the Dream

        By Deng Dekuek

In a muffle mist
a bitter wind blows.
Yokes of fate
on clouded paths of confusion.
A lone voice falls
on itself in echoes.

A grey war, as
words weep piteously.
But the dream is muted
as a shimmering mist swirls.
Draping itself on the people
a yoke of fate.
I – I am but a humble scribe
walking into the mist.
