THE THREE APPLES

 THE THREE APPLES T he Khalif Haroun er Reshid summoned his Vizier Jaafer one night and said to him, ‘I have a mind to go down into the city and question the common people of the conduct of the officers charged with its government; and those of whom they complain, we will depose, and those whom they commend, we will advance.’ Quoth Jaafer, ‘I hear and obey.’ So the Khalif and Jaafer and Mesrour went down into the town and walked about the streets and markets till, as they were passing through a certain alley, they came upon an old man walking along at a leisurely pace, with a fishing-net and a basket on his head and a staff in his hand, and heard him repeat the following verses: They tell me I shine, by my wisdom and wit, Midst the rest of my kind, as the moon in the night. “A truce to your idle discourses!” I cry, “What’s knowledge, indeed, unattended by might?” If you offered me, knowledge and wisdom and all, With my inkhorn and papers, in pawn for a mite, To buy one day’s victua...

A Hole translated by Empty 5

A Hole

There is a hole in the bamboo mat wall. Our daughter with Tha Nat Khar meshed on the cheek left from that hole. She could not come back until now. Your mommy, I cannot stand to wait for the time you came back, I looked from the bamboo mat's hole. I saw the bloodied muzzle of guns.

Then, I saw the shining dinner that was cooked with pieces of cutting the Bloody of Myanmar country. Among them. I saw a charity man donated to the monastery who was sitting and drinking a wine made with my daughter's blood at the biggest table.

I heard the sound of weeping in the dark beside the dinner.

"Oh my baby, Oh my baby..", after shouting the "Oh my baby", Mommy fell on the floor. At that time, Daddy wants to look from that hole in the bamboo mat. And so, the family members looked to the hole alternatively. They cannot go away from that hole.

Actually, now there was like a hole in the heart of every people of the whole country in Myanmar.

A bullet hit the head of a girl playing in the house.

A day, I blocked a friend forever in life. He said: "she has to stay away from the bullet".
