NATIONAL DAY
This is Austria’s National Day.
You can stand in line
for a rather long time
to look inside.
It feels rather hollow.
You knew that before.
Most people are friendly,
guarding the power.
Rooms are old and tall.
Imperial times
are very remote.
Everyone knows
something unspeakable
was in between.

国庆
奥地利国庆
可以去排队
等一段看见
政府楼里面
感觉很空洞
你早都知道
人都还善良
权利的保安
天花板高上
皇帝时代
现在很遥远
谁都知道
难说的事
就在中间

Li Xunyang
HÄUPTLINGSKINDER
Heute ist der 138. Geburtstag
des modernen Autors Lu Xun.
Eine ehemalige Schülerin
schreibt unter ein diesbezügliches Posting
„Heute ist auch der Geburtstag
des Kaisers Qian Long.“
Ich frag überhaupt nicht höflich:
„Ein Kaiser von deinem örtlichen Häuptling
und du gedenkst seines Geburtstags
wofür
wofür
wofür?“
Ich hör alle eintausendvierhundert fruchtbare Flecken
in meiner Provinz
widerhallen
von dieser Frage.
