中国大好き

THIS MONTH

This month I didn’t write much,
Hardly wrote anything.
I wrote about last year last month,
The demolitions last year in June.
Small local chief
Destroys international art.
Also this year.
For me, the main difference
Is I am not there.
I didn’t go,
Stayed with wife and child.
And so I didn’t
Write very much.

这个月｜维马丁

这个月没有写多少
基本上什么都没有写
上个月写去年的事
去年就是六月拆房
小当地秘书
拆国际艺术
今年也拆
主要的差别
对我来说
我不在那边
今年没去
今年跟着妻子儿子
这样就没有
写了很多

Ma Jinshan
LIVELIHOOD

In front of
The mayor,
My boss
Acts like me
In front of
His face.
Like a dog.

生计｜马金山

在市长
的面前
我老板
如我在
他面前
像条狗

Ma Jinshan
ON THE GRASSLANDS

A flock of sheep
With lowered heads,
Grazing their own
Shadow.

大草原上
马金山

一群羊
在低头
啃吃草地上
自己的
影子

Ma Jinshan
2025

The flood carries the fish away.
The flood carries hogs away.
The flood carries trees.
The flood carries cars.
The flood carries houses away.
The flood carries people away.

2025
马金山

洪水把鱼冲走了
洪水把猪冲走了
洪水把树冲走了
洪水把车冲走了
洪水把房冲走了
洪水把人冲走了
