人与妖
经过冠状的洗礼,人类已分人与妖。
道德至高西方人,一日跌入妖魔境。
剥削迷信全使出,外面美丽内丑陋。
压迫被骂亚洲人,原来祖传是人仙。
和谐慈善又团结,病毒也看不愿侵。
三百年来犯压杀,怨恨情仇妖来定。
魔化浩劫不可挡,世界急奔其末日。
开战前夕冠状降,法官陪审执行人,一致由它一毒当。
人仙确实不可犯,恶魔鬼怪不能饶。
留下只有感化妖,感化不了必分割。
哪有人类的放肆,过得老天这一关。

        COMFORM AND SEGREGATE
Corona put up two grand shows of conformation and 
segregation.  In Asia, the conformation to the old 
culture of feudalism of caring, healing and unity showed 
its benefit, while in the West, just using segregation to 
flatten the curves of infected cases of Covid-19, only 
allowed the pandemic to continue prolonging itself.
Then just as the dust settled a bit, the world is flaring up 
again with the Hongkong riot in Asia and black's protest 
of white's discrimination in America.  
One thing for sure, that is we humans are not about to 
solve any of the problems we caused.  Could the 
answers be in the clues of conform and segregate that 
Corona hinted us?
I choose to persist in my believe in Corona. So, my 
answer is "yes".
Let me first tell the story of my personal, first-hand 
experience dealing in matters related to our current 
problems.  Then I would like to propose some solution 
to these problems.
Since 1984, I basically retired from this world.  The 
only link that remained is an apartment building that I 
acquired to keep my wife occupied in its management, 
instead of preoccupied in managing me.
Twice this uncut link dragged me back to solve some 
real-world troubles.  The first time was some tenant 
had a big noisy party, getting the next-door apartment's 
manager to call the police. 
When I arrived at the scene, the place was a mess. The 
tenant himself had dosed off on the sofa, stoned drunk, 
probably with drugs, as I found marijuana all over the 
tabletop.  Immediately, I collected all of them and 
flushed them down the toilet.
The police responding to the 911 call came just after I 
destroyed all the evidence of crimes that have bring 
many American kids into lives of outlaws.  The other 
manager followed the police to conspire in committing 
my tenants.
Both of them repeatedly asked me if the kids had been 
smoking marijuana or using drugs.  Of course, I said no.  
Why, the cop even took me out of the room and give 
me a big talk-to on how serious this matter was and I'd 
better level with him.  I leveled him with "I didn't see 
anything?"
Now the police and manager initiated a thorough 
search of the apartment, with the kids scarily looking on.  
They couldn't find anything.  The kids was visibly 
relieved.
Finally, when three of us decided to leave, before 
closing the door behind us, I openly left the kids a 
reminder:" Have your fun, but don't ever get caught."
Everyone chuckled and understood what I meant.
My wife had been trying to get these problematic kids 
out of the apartment for a long time.  A few week 
after the incident, they left.  And I hope I conformed 
them a bit.
Now come to a serious incident.  That's when my wife 
fired our manager and he retaliated.
First, he came to our house way up in the hill and 
pretended a breakin by loudly destroyed our back door 
very late in the night.  So, we fixed the door 
suspecting a failed breakin attempt.
Then this manager threw a cement block into the 
backseat of my car, breaking the side window and 
crashed into the handle of the other door.  We just 
went to fix the car for about $1800 of damage.  We 
both knew who might have done this, but kept to 
ourselves.
Finally, not just us two, but many of the tenants in the 
apartment knew who did it, but still all kept our mouth 
shut.  Somebody tried to burn down the apartment!
This manager should have stopped his revenge, as a fire 
truck had to be called to extinguish the fire, which was 
set from a spot deep under the deck.  
But he might not have stopped.
Well, this part is just my suspicion, as my wife was 
totally knocked out by the subsequent tragedy. It was 
about the sudden death of our perfectly healthy dog, 
Cody.  
Cody was my wife's pride and joy.  And, for a long 
time, Cody got along exceptionally well with the 
manager, too, as he had been insisting that we let him 
have Cody when we shall take long trips out the city. 
But a few months before my wife fired the manager, 
after someone reported to her about the manager's 
unprofessional practices, Cody showed obvious signs of 
distress for what the manager did to Cody during their 
baby-sitting sessions.
Then, suddenly one night, Cody couldn't breath due to 
an expanded heart, according to the doctor.  When my 
wife rushed Cody to the hospital, Cody died in the car.
Well, it was a lot of conforming, leading to the final 
segregation.  Had we done anything differently, the 
situation would be much, much worse than this already 
unimaginable event of things.
Yes, the alternative is: confrontation.
If you don't believe, look at the two confrontations we 
have, one in Hongkong, and the other in America.
All the lessons we learned from Covid-19 went up in 
smokes.  Now, we have almost forgotten that we are 
in a pandemic.
I shall, nevertheless, still try to propose a solution in the 
old style of Chinese brush-writing, going from top to 
bottom and right to left, for future presentation in a 
scroll.
