RAIN WASHING THE STREETS – WRITTEN BEFORE THE MARCH 30 PROTEST IN TAIPEI
every morning
I move the whip pressed on my face
take a good breath
so I can get up
every evening
I scrub the lies seared on my forehead
so I can sleep
there are some things you can’t move away
like the police stick in your shoulder blade
sometimes you don’t wake up from dreams
you lift your head to a forest of shields
a car leaving early, I don’t remember the number
a song we sang, I don’t remember the words
I don’t remember how far we walked
and didn’t give up
silent hospitals
silent holding cells
silent TVs
silent tourist hotels
silent concerts
silent barricades
silent mount ali, sun-moon-lake, taroko gorge tribal areas
one huge silence
from teeming noise
in a cold front from the mainland
shrouding Taiwan
particulates off the charts
until one black flood
breaks worn embankments
one hard rain on the president’s palace
and the sky of tonight
and the road of tomorrow
are swept very clean

洗街雨──寫於330凱道反服貿前夕
每天早上
把壓在臉上的靴子移開
透一口氣
才能起床
每天晚上
用力搓洗烙在額頭的謊言
才能就寢
有些東西是移不走的
比如嵌在肩胛的警棍
有些夢是不會醒的
比如抬頭就得面對盾牌的叢林
不記得提前離開的那輛車的車牌
不記得一起唱的那首歌的歌詞
不記得我們走了多遠
還不放棄
沈默的醫院
沈默的拘留所
沈默的電視
沈默的觀光飯店
沈默的演唱會
沈默的拒馬
沈默的阿里山、日月潭、太魯閣的原住民部落
人聲鼎沸
的巨大沈默
隨著大陸冷氣團
籠罩全台
懸浮微粒指數超標
直到萬頃黑色海潮
衝破疲憊的堤岸
一陣大雨掃過總統府
把今夜的天空
明天的道路
洗得乾乾淨淨

A Poem for #CongressOccupied Protesters in Taiwan,
different link: (https://www.oximity.com/article/A-Poem-for-CongressOccupied-Protesters-1)
我們來了，夏天也來了
我們的腳步，可以溫柔也可以堅定
我們的聲音，可以優美也可以嘶啞
我們的拳頭，可以揮向天空也可以揮向不義
我們的心，可以是血的紅也可以是青草的綠
我們越過圍牆佔領這條街、這個廣場、這個堡壘
當別人把這裡當作提款機、當作傳聲筒、當作逃生梯
我們把這裡當作溫暖的搖籃，當作哺育稻米的農田，當作未來之歌的錄音間
我們歌唱，對，我們歌唱
我們用歌唱佔領一個原該屬於我們的國家，原該保護我們的政府，原該支持我們生存的殿堂
把它從墳墓變成子宮，從垃圾堆變成果園，從地獄變成天堂
甚至我們不奢求天堂，我們垂下眼睛，把這裡當作自己的家
今夜，原不相識的你我，在這裡多元成家
今夜，我們甘願做愛的暴民
就像五二０訴願農民那樣的暴民
就像六四天安門學生那樣的暴民
就像把美麗島當號角的那樣的暴民
就像用野百合、用茉莉花改變世界的那樣的暴民
就像以自焚為武器的鄭南榕那樣的暴民
不過今夜，我們不焚燒自己
我們焚燒這嚴寒的冬夜
讓夏天一夜之間，來到我們眼前！

Lady Liberty’s Sword
Obama gave his yearly trade report, he wants to sell American pork to Taiwan. Obama is the first African American president. Black people are saved, pigs aren’t saved. Neither are cows. No matter how many hormones they feed them, all humanity has to eat your meat, and it has to be minced, so you don’t know which piece is an eye that saw the sky or a butt tired from needles. Nowadays no-one will eat black people. But there are people who want to swallow Ukrainians, Uighurs, Tibetans. They try out nuclear bombs at Lop Nor, they shoot a movie at Chernobyl, they build a nuclear power plant in Gongliao in Taiwan. Obama is happy to sell uranium for Taiwan nuclear power, I guess Americans like to eat up Taiwanese, barbecued by the torch of the Statue of Liberty. At the beginning of Kafka’s novel “America”, Lady Liberty’s torch is mistaken for a sword, piercing the suddenly brightening sky. Actually, isn’t it really a sword? Lady Liberty wielding the sword, cowering beauty beyond compare. America the beautiful. Beautiful cows, beautiful pigs, beautiful people. But definitions of beauty are changing. Beautiful Oscar movies, a junkie or a female star in a breakdown, garbage floating in space, we have to get membership, purchase tickets online, complete with Coke and popcorn (from genetically modified American corn), and put on our 3D glasses to see it all clearly.

自由女神的劍
歐巴馬年度貿易報告，想把美豬賣給台灣。歐巴馬是美國第一位黑人總統。黑人得救了，豬沒有得救。美牛也沒有。不管被餵了多少藥物殘留，人類還是要吃你的肉，而且是絞碎了吃，分不出哪一塊是你望過藍天的眼或針孔累累的臀。現在已經沒有人會吃黑人。但是還有人想吃烏克蘭人，維族人，藏人。在羅布泊做核武試爆，去車諾比拍災難片，在貢寮蓋核電廠。歐巴馬很樂意賣原料給核四，原來美國人也吃台灣人，只是要先用自由女神的火炬烤一烤。卡夫卡寫過一本《美國》，一開始就把女神的火炬誤以為是一把劍，刺向突然亮起來的天空。那其實是一把劍不是嗎？女神揮劍恫嚇的姿態優美絕倫。我以為美牛、美豬、美人都是美的。然而美的定義已經改變了。美是奧斯卡獎頒給的嗑藥英雄和崩潰的女星、在太空中飛行的垃圾，我們要加入會員、電腦訂票、並搭配可樂和爆米花（也是基因改造的美玉米），戴上3D眼鏡才能看清楚。
