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

Save Me
Save my vegetables, grains and fruits
Save my books, writing paper and ink
Save my wearing silk, my lipstick, and my perfume
Save my phone calls and save my wearing jewelry
Save my car so let the road more spacious
Save my house, and take my father in
