The poem I posted in SchMOOze

Lu Xun

I had stuck in such situation for a long time.
Since I kicked Mr. Longtime's over-many-many-year account book.
I revealed a secret from their desirous eyes.
Their big weird eyes sparkled mysterious lights-they wanted to eat me.
I opened the historical book seeing two words "EAT MEN" between the lines.
How could I escape if my country had over four thousands years history of eating men?
I was in the dark and could not tell it was day or night
.

Learning process of SchMOOze
