The Demon Child Stirs The Sea

The Demon Child Stirs the Sea
By William He

The molten sands of crimson dread,
Where time unravels like a serpent's thread.
Demons are swept away,
A tempest in human guise,
His eyes twin voids, where galaxies collide then.
The Devil's Fury hums, a spectral hymn.
Shattered memories,
Withered remains scorched by fire.
His long spear,
The shard of lightning's broken spine,
Divine animals rush and presses against each other.

The earth convulses, a beast in restless sleep.
The East Sea quakes and secretly weeps,
Rivers of ash flow backward to the sun,
He stirs the depths of endless waters with magic freed.
He rides the wind, a chariot of flame,
His laughter echoes in symphony,
The heavens shatter and their glass tears fall,
The Lotus blooms, not in water but in air.

Storm of stardust sighs.
He is unmaking the night.
Lost souls wander in this desolate space,
These spectral arms from the void.
His essence shimmers, a flickering ember a defiant gleam.
Standing between the void and the beating heart,
He sings of realms beyond despair once.
Auspicious stars flicker,
Cosmos folds into his palm,
The phantom battle ever.

兰陵王 哪吒2
作者:何威廉

岩浆赤,
蛇线时间脉脉。
陈塘口,
人化飓风,
眼底星云善骑射。
龙王忽烦啧。
离坼,
枯骸火炙。
长矛插、
剔骨返魂,
重塑凡身两相迫。

山摇兽眠怵。
奈地震东海,
灰烬光逆。
舌能鼓奏歌随律。
看风火轮战,
笑回交响,
天崩啼泪可记忆。
乍莲绽空域。

星息。
夜摧熠。
恰羁绊双生,
错命承袭。
恨情丝缕编成幅。
见往来三界,
太虚间立。
吉星闪烁,
掌天宇,
扰沌谧。

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
"Demon Child": Nezha 2, the Demon Child Conquers the Dragon King is a 2025 Chinese animated fantasy adventure film written and directed by Jiaozi. It is the sequel to the 2019 film Ne Zha. With a production budget of US$80 million, the film grossed US$1.7 billion, breaking multiple box-office records. It surpassed Inside Out 2 (2024) to become the highest-grossing animated film of all time, marking the first time a non-American, non-English-language animated film achieved this milestone. "Chariot of flame": Wind-and-fire wheels are melee weapons, wielded as a pair, associated with Chinese martial arts such as baguazhang and taijiquan. Visually, they are similar to chakrams, although unlike chakrams they are not throwing weapons. Each wheel is a flat metal ring approximately 38 cm (15 in) in diameter. One quarter-segment has a padded grip with a cross-guard; the other three segments have protruding flame-styled blades.
