THE STADIUM

He had been to stadiums
as a spectator and as a player several times.
Although he did not dislike sports and entertainments,
he was not happy anytime
because he did not have obedience to power
which a citizen had to have.

One day someone gave him a ticket for a professional baseball game.
This person was obedient to power,
that is to say, a model citizen.

He thought that to take the favor of this person was his task,
so he went to the stadium alone on the night of the game.
He was obedient to the individual tasks.

In the stadium the obedient citizens were gathering
and the game that looked small was playing.
All the baseball players looked obedient to power.
He thought that the shows had to be like this.

He wasn't happy as usual,
so he went out of the stadium
in the middle of the game.
And from the outside he saw a big block of stone
into which the obedient citizens and the game that looked small were packed.
