Dignity for all and society for all
"the mountains are hazy with timeless passivity / sprawling monotonously in the left-hand corner / while clouds diffuse and fill the entire top half / before bumping daintily into a bright red parakeet / perched suicide-like on a beautiful gnarled branch / arched by the weight of fruit and one ripe peach / hung a motionless inch from the gaping beak // here is transient beauty /
caught in permanence / but of what avail is such perpetual unattainment? // i know the stupid bird can never eat the stupid peach"
—Arthur Yap
