I dreamed I was a butterfly...
"flitting around in the sky; then I awoke. Now I wonder: Am I a man who dreamt of being a butterfly, or am I a butterfly dreaming that I am a man?" Zhuangzi

As a butterfly,
I never imagined the world
I lived in.
It was always there
Manifest before me.
I could trust what I saw;
What I sensed;
What I felt.
But as I dream,
I become a man.
A king.
And I do not know
If anyone
tells me the truth.
What lies ahead are pitfalls.
The decision before me
Is set:
Do I remain a king
Or flutter away?
