Jeju ARIRANG -Rinsung KIM 2007-

2010-01-16T10:53:00.001+09:00

제목 : [제주]아리랑
내용 : 재봉틀과 함께 평생을 살아오신 할머니다. 할머니가 살아온 세월의 깊이 만큼이나 낡은 재봉틀... 할머니와 재봉틀은 그래서 하나이다. 할머니는 평생 재봉일을 하면서 자식들을 키웠냈다. 지금도 할머니는 재봉일로 생계를 이어가고 있다. 작품에서 보듯이 할머니는 수의(호상옷)을 짓고 있다. "저승갈 때 입는 옷"이란 말씀 그리고 아리랑 노래 속에 삶의 무게가 담겨 있음이 느껴진다.

a cup of coffee knows

2009-12-07T01:46:00.007+09:00

This cafe have lots of kinds of lovely cups.
Every time, they choose different cups with their own "handsome" stereotype
for each of their costumers. And I am always curious that how they choose the cup?

Today, they served me a bitter-sweet coffee with this amazing cup.
Maybe they knew I needed it.

Guess how much I loved that pot....

Asking

2009-11-28T16:17:00.002+09:00

Someone said in the movie that
everything happens to our human-being is countable
How many times you see the moon set in your life,
How many times you kiss to adorable lips in your life,
How many breathes you pull and push in your life,
he said that everything is countable for us, after all

Yes, He is probably right. maybe not right
So here I ask to him if he is listening me now
How many times you visit her room in your day,
How many times you kiss to her pillow in your night
and How many of your tear drops turn into a sigh in front of her?

probably zero,

or uncountable

sometimes you know?

2009-11-21T21:15:00.001+09:00

Sometimes,

you know it's very sometimes...

whatever people says,

you know it's very sometimes....

sometimes...

Cleanup time

2009-11-21T11:52:00.003+09:00

Moonlight on the water

Sun light on my face

You and me together

We are in our place

The gods are in the heavens

The angels treat us well

The oracle has spoken

We cast the perfect spell

The queen is in the counting home

Counting out the money

The king is in the kitchen

Making bread and honey

No friends and yet no enemies

Absolutely free

No rats aboard the magic ship

Of perfect harmony

Now it begins - let it begin

Cleanup Time

However far we travel

Wherever we may roam

The centre of the circle

Will always be our home

Cleanup Time...

Now That I Know How It Is

2009-11-19T20:49:00.002+09:00

I'm here by the gate.
Maybe you'll throw open a door and call.
I'm drenched with being here,
rambling drunk. Things dissolve around me,
but I'm still sitting here.

One clap in the emptiness of space. New centuries begin.
Laughter. A rose, a wise loveliness, the sun
coming out brilliantly, on horseback.
All this day we'll be close, drinking and joking,
close to your face. Whenever I say your face
my soul jumps out of its skin!

Is there some other roof somewhere? Any name
other than yours? Any glasses of wine other than this
you bring me so perfectly?
If I find my life, I 'll never let go,
holding and twisting the cloth of your coat
as in that dream when I saw you.

By this gate kings are waiting with me.
Your eyes, I 'm lost remembering your eyes.
Look at us out here moaning with our shirts ripped open.
Anyone seeing your face and not obsessed with the sight
is cold as rock in the ground.
What further curse could I put on him?

What's worse than having no word from you?
Don't waste your life with those who don't see you.
Stay with us. We're each running across the beach,
torn loose from friends, making friends with the sea.
On flood moves in its sleep. One's confused
out of its channel. One says All praise to God.
Another, No strength but yours.

A song of your "bone sky"

2009-11-16T01:42:00.002+09:00

I am learning about the meaning of learning

I know I am still far and far from the answer

But, I don't worry at all

Because, like my teacher said,

"Even in confusion there is light to be found"

And we see the rainbow

even in this crazy weather

I saw those two beautiful rainbows today,

and it was the bridge, once I tried to find

with my little sister

How

2009-11-14T15:45:00.008+09:00

Tell me how,
how can I do that

None of excuses you would never need,
and I won't mind even though I have to suck
hundred barrels of salty water for thousand years!

So, tell me how
how can I say that
I am a liar

Drinking wine with you, getting warmer and warmer,
I think why not trade in this overcoat
made of leaves and dirt.
Then I look out the window.
For what? Both worlds are here.

about "I gotta go"

2009-11-10T20:44:00.002+09:00

do you have someone, whom
you are not able to say that
"I am so sorry, but I gotta go" ?

today I suddenly knew that
the words "I gotta go" is
kind of my dream words

if you could say them to someone
I think you are really

cool

PS Something is changing so big,
so sad and so glad...I know what is this
or I don't know what is this.................
maybe I have to be
cool

A wise man said,

2009-11-10T04:44:00.008+09:00

We have a huge barrel of wine, but no cups.

That's fine with us. Every morning

we glow and in the evening we glow again.

They say there's no future for us. They'are right.

Which is fine with us.

Sunday School Shut

2009-11-08T19:19:00.014+09:00

일요일.
학교가 문을 닫았는데도 나는 학교에 간다.
학교에 가면, 누군가가 나를 억지로라도 채찍해주시고,
학교에 가면, 항상 꼴등만 하는데도 매일 학교에나오는 그아이도 계신다.
그렇게 학교에 가면,
우리는 열린 문은 어찌 닫아야하는지,
어렵사리 꾼 꿈은 어찌 잊을 수 있는지,
어떻게 지루함과 역겨움에 익숙해지고,
어떤 순서로 노래방과 빠찡꼬에 중독될 수있는지,
아주차근차근, 친절하고 상냥하게 학습을 받는다.
대머리 선생님과 연애도 하고 말이다 ◆

You Worry Too Much

2009-11-08T02:31:00.005+09:00

Oh soul,
you worry too much.
You say,
I make you feel dizzy.
Of a little headache then,
why do you worry?
You say, I am your moon-faced beauty.
Of the cycles of the moon and
passing of the years,
why do you worry?
You say, I am your source of passion,
I excite you.
Of playing into the Devils hand,
why do you worry?

Oh soul,
you worry too much.

Look at yourself,
what you have become.
You are now a field of sugar canes,
why show that sour face to me?
You say that I keep you warm inside.
Then why this cold sigh?
You have gone to the roof of heavens.
Of this world of dust, why do you worry?

Oh soul,
you worry too much.

Your arms are heavy
with treasures of all kinds.
About poverty,
why do you worry?
You are Joseph,
beautiful, strong,
steadfast in your belief,
all of Egypt has become drunk
because of you.
Of those who are blind to your beauty,
and deaf to your songs,
why do you worry?

Oh soul,
you worry too much.

You have seen your own strength.
You have seen your own beauty.
You have seen your golden wings.
Of anything less,
why do you worry?
You are in truth
the soul, of the soul, of the soul.
You are the security,
the shelter of the spirit of Lovers.
Oh the sultan of sultans,
of any other king,
why do you worry?

Be silent, like a fish,
and go into that pleasant sea.
You are in deep waters now,
of life's blazing fire.
Why do you worry?

A dictator plays her accordion in the river

2009-11-07T15:47:00.009+09:00

While you were sleeping...... I went to the river to play my accordion. I don't really know how to play it, as it has only been 6 weeks with me! So, my accordion plays me most of times, and I am pretty much enjoying that. The river side is always so huge for tiny little human beings there. People takes a walk with a dog, Dogs take human for a walk I don't know, anyway there were couples of dogs + peoples listening my melodies. Or, they were just listening the river and I was disturbing them... Viva Saturday evening, I am happy enough◆

shiny conversations

2009-11-06T18:19:00.008+09:00

While you were sleeping, I met two lovely strangers at the park. She said that she has to go back till 4:15 pm as her mother said so, but it was almost 5 pm when she watched her time! What a cute lair... We have got a plan to play together next time◆

A postcard from Eva

2009-11-05T23:13:00.006+09:00

Eva, who has perfect body & soul, I meet her in the Lake Bayur (West Sumatra) last year. When the first time we meet, we were the only swimmers in that morning. Have you ever swam in the lake? If no, you have to try. It's totally different with ocean and river. What I've got impressed most was, "the soundless". It was so quiet, so you only can hear the sound of your moving arms, legs... hairs... And I could feel that all the sounds through my ears were coming into my body like electrical powers! Floating on the lake makes you feel like a dream-walker, no, dream-swimmer actually.

"Hi, nice to meet you, my name is MaYa"
"Maya??? What a beautiful name?! I LOVE YOUR NAME MAYA! My name is Eva"
"Eva??? What a beautiful name too?! I LOVE YOUR NAME EVA!, really nice to meet you"

That was how we have met each others for the rest of our lives. Since that, she sends me a post card or letters from every place where she goes. Once from Mexico, many times from Belgium, and the postcard arrived in this evening with full of good smells from India too. Thank you Eva, Even though I knew you will never find this blog!++A small conversation or little attention about strangers surrounding you could change your life in very "fish" way ◆
