It Would Be Nice... Poem by Phan Thanh gian

It Would Be Nice...



It would be nice...

To be able to see without sight
Hear in total silence
Feel without touch
Witness the whole world
Without being anywhere...

... because:

Even with perfect vision
We are virtually blind
Our ears are near deaf
Humans crowd by the billions
Mais hélas! we live in mindless oblivion
