POEM TRANSLATION HAIKU/SENRYU ECHOES 400
WALLS AND SHADOWS
（牆壁和陰影）
cliff silhouette casts
峭牆倒影射
spooky face with tomb’s shadow
幽靈墓碑的影子
fort wall off both world
牆壁隔兩界
Note:
The human mind indulges in meaning finding, even to the extent of instilling fear to itself. We interpret silhouette , shadows, tombs and create walls for safety, protection and divide endlessly.
