Lantern Town Poem by Zhang Zao
Lantern Town
lantern town, lantern town
you - like the latest fake news
nobody wants you
unless you build a statue for yourself
( Chorus )
fake statue, a statue
extravagant decadence
( Voices offstage )
where is it, where is it
a tiger holds the statue in its mouth
into the last woods it fades away
the statue is wrapped in dusk
like in its bowels
lantern town, lantern town, I don't want to breathe
