              【To Lyrical Gossipers】

 

 


  
                   By Tian Yu Zhi               

 

 

 

You have been naughty and busy lately 

Stick your nose into other people's pants

Sniffing around 

 

 

You rack your brains, arranging 

level and oblique tones for harmony

Searching for antithetical couplets, and staled allusions 

 

 

Paint other people's emotions with fake colors of

Showy, borrowed words, drawn only out of 

Scant imagination and shallow observation 

 

 

No matter how hard you have tried, nevertheless 

They are still a low lifer's alley gossips in lyrical forms

With no heart, soul, or compassion

 

 

Maybe start from today, look very hard around yourself

See if you could find anything beautiful

In your own pathetic, unhappy life, and write about it, e.g.

 

 

That plate of pork tongues you love to chew on weekends
