Following the
Cranes
-
-
(i)
Fukien Province July
2002
-
My parents bent their
backs
-
So that I should not have
to wade in the mud.
-
I see the cranes fly
Westward
-
Across the rising sun.
-
Soon I shall soon join
them
-
And walk upright without
burden.
-
-
(ii)
Morecombe
Bay 5/02/04
-
I bend my back,
-
Heave my burden through
the thickening mud.
-
The water rises. I can no
longer see the setting sun.
-
I crane my neck to the
East
-
But when the birds come
for me
-
It will be too late.
