Inquiry/ Vortex

original poem 〈問〉
english translation by Jeats


Inquiry 


1.
The girl who loved scrawling took away
Crayons from the hands
And along the center of the road she started
Drawing double yellow lines
Since then I all the time chased
Two naughty twisted braids



2.
Lying on the big stone in the deep forest
Looking at
The boy who always did math homework with the back of calendar paper
Shih!
Another leaf torn off


3.
Was it “le” sound?
Each and one letter was burned to ash by the sunset
We sat shoulder by shoulder on the long beach
Gazing at
That little boy whose name was “sea”
He practiced the retroflex without a stop


4.
Every night we always climbed up to top of the roof
Calculating how many Cigarette butts casted away
One, two, three, four…

God must be very depressed








XXX

original poem〈漩渦〉
english translation by Jeats


Vortex


About my story of the helmsman who lost his ship
He so much insisted
There was such a deep vortex in your hair
