(translated by the author and Marilyn Chin)

“Purple somke-ring rise up to the ceiling
From my lips_
One,two,three,
Is Arthur Seaton still angry with

My Enlightenment
always comes after sex.
So in this case is my view of the world
always post-coital?
A girl walking on the linoleum with

In my eyes the world becomes darker and

“If it stops raining"
Farewell to this dying ruraltown.
