The Secondary Rainbow on Birthday(14 lines)
— To the Birthday of Chen & Jiong
By Dazang
Chen, my dear, the sun and flame’s lover in the darkness,
We think of our birthday together in our winter in the first snow
By walking through the dark night I picked the secondary rainbow for you in paradise

I've never wanted to possess you
—The Elegy of the Lyre No. 6
I've never wanted to possess you, a piece of exquisite artifact
You're only suitable for pouring into my enamored soul
But not for being profaned; in front of you
I just want to be your reach things

The Bird Must Be My Lover
As the bird flew, she flew towards the place I’d lived
with her snowy white feather, as if she was born
in white jade. She flew leisurely at the speed, not fast, not slow
on her face with the sky’s expression.
On her way, she had never screamed, never exaggerated and never flaunted

Self-portrait
Now it is at night
And my heart is filled with the darkness
The wine cup drawn an arc
Which fictions my reality
A snow is drifting profusely and disorderly
I just feel it, but have no experience about it
