Challenge #7: Activate your insect antennae
By feihong,

Clouds, just like wandering minstrels
Singing the wind’s song, spitting the rain’s saliva
Birds, forgot how to fly
Anyway, being in a cage isn’t tiring, can sleep soundly
Turn off cell phone, activate insect’s antennae
Let us perceive this world
Right now, close your friend feed
Close your eyes, and your mouth
Ears, can probe orientation
Let us slowly search for the distant place
Reindeer eats that lichen ah
It can’t come out of the forest ah
Information overload is like carbon in the air
Am I engaging too many senses (at once)?
Invite “Silence” on a date
Use insect’s antennae to chat with her
The ink on the page is deeper than that on a page
The music on a live stage is more real than that from earphones
After we meet in person, give me your time, ok?
After returning home, (use our cell phones to) keep in touch
Use insect’s antennae to look far afield
Use insect’s antennae to perceive this world, ok? Heh heh.

Chinese lyrics
云儿 就像吟游诗人
唱着风的歌，吐着雨的口水
鸟儿 忘记了怎么飞
反正在笼中不累，可以安睡
关上手机，开启虫的触角
让我们感知这世界吧
现在 关上你的朋友圈
闭上你的眼睛 还有嘴
耳朵 可以探测方向
让我们逐渐 去寻觅远方
驯鹿是吃那苔藓的啊
它从森林中出不来呀
信息多的像空中的碳（氧化合物）
我是否运行着太多感官？
邀请“静静”来个约会吧
用虫的触角与她交谈
书上的墨比屏幕更深
现场的音乐比耳机更真
相见后时间给我可以吗？
回家后再低头联络吧
用虫的触角去遥望吧
用虫的触角去感知这世界，好吗？ 呵呵
