A Walking Shadow Poem by Chen-ou Liu

A Walking Shadow



A Tanka Prose


stage lights on...
my copy of 'Macbeth'
battered
and its cover spotted
as if by white molds

I start reciting in a hoarse voice, 'Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow...' In the back of my mind, I wonder if there is another tomorrow for a gentile like me in this promised land.
