Dear First World, Salute to you
Accept humble bow, from the Third World.
Thank you for the great lectures for fucking idiots.
Heads hung low, wide-eyed,
...
Farewell migrating cranes,
your fields have turned dry,
like the heart of my country--a long journey awaits.
Although it may kill,
...
Life met me in the alley, shattered and torn,
As if violated by cruel invaders' scorn.
But I gathered her broken fragments, piece by piece,
And adorned her with flowers, seeking love and peace.
...
Oh lady, do you remember me?
The flower you left in the book of poetry.
I lay forgotten for so long,
My petals dried, my colors gone.
...
