Autumn Dreams
Zhang Shuming
Autumn dreams are always related to life.
Today, in a daze
I had a dream this afternoon.

It was just a dream.
The moment I woke up
I remembered this scene.

It had something to do with math.
Because the math class had just finished.
I was waiting for my students to finish their homework.

At this critical moment.
I woke up.
Scanned by the sun's beautiful rays.

I opened my eyes wide 👀
I just remembered
The serial numbers of the homework problems.

One, three, five, six, seven, eight, ten, sixteen.
It's a string of numbers that I've been praying for.
Arabic numerals.

Very memorable numbers.
Otherwise, the consequences must be dire.
It must be a blank slate.

But a void.
It's a necessary part of the experience....
