A Hard Road to Walk (2) Qiji The road is hard to walk, But not because its track may rise or fall. It’s odious comparisons That make the flattest pathway mountainous. Then lacquer fears to stand alongside pitch, Vermilion won’t be seen with cinnabar. We fear to mix with other men, And wish for pure white clouds to paint instead. 齐己 行路难二首·其二 下浸与高盘，不为行路难。 是非真险恶，翻覆作峰峦。 漆愧同时黑，朱惭巧处丹。 令人畏相识，欲画白云看。
