Two Dangerous Children by Wansoo Kim
The eyes in the whole world
Raise the prayer letters for peace to the heaven day and night
Watching the mouths of the capricious children.
One child who likes
The game of missiles and nuclear tests
And the other child who takes pride in
The game of aircraft careers and combat planes
Met at one place.
Those who have thrown murderous punches
Putting on the look of the devil
Whenever they open their mouth
Hand the flowers of a bright smile
Holding each other’s hands like great friends.
Watching the two who show the pose
Like the great men supposed to get Nobel Prize,
The eyes in the whole world
Twinkle the colors of hope and doubt at the same time.
Will the unification festival happen,
Which applauses and cheers are so high all over the world,
In South and North Korea soon like a romantic drama?
Or will the crazy fear festival happen
Which lets out horrible shriek and blows up sparks
With missiles and combats planes losing their reason?
The eyes in the whole world
Raise the prayer letters for peace to the heaven day and night
Watching the mouths of the capricious children.
I also pray the braggart child with a big nose who likes flattery
Won’t hurt his big nose
Looking down on the bright smile of the fatty child
Disguised as the innocent and humble eyes.
