Xi Wa
MY HIDDEN UGLINESS
I carry two bags of vegetables
coming out of Oakleigh supermarket
and crash into a guy with brown skin.
I wasn’t careful.
I apologize to him,
and he invites me for a drink.
My first reaction
is after the drink
if he wants to sleep with me what shall I do?
He does have deep eyes and a tall nose,
and smells of vetiver,
my favourite scent.
If he had white or yellow skin,
I wouldn’t refuse him outright
in this way.
I thought I had already moved beyond
racism.
Yes, that was before I had concrete thoughts
of going to bed
with one of them.

HAPPY 2017!
2016 was actually not bad.
We won Van der Bellen.
It was a long match.
The referee made it last the whole year.
We stayed in our league.
Which regional league is that exactly?
There are so many, aren’t there?
They lost some big matches in other leagues.
There’ll be all sorts of fall-out all over.
Anyway, we won.
Happy New Year!

祝大家2017年好!
2016年其實不那麽糟糕。
我们赢了總統大選
總共打了一年,
一直拖延因為裁判的决定,
最後留在原来的级别。
到底什麽地區的级别?
在其他地區
别人輸了他們的比赛,
到處都會有影響。
不過我們赢了!
從奥地利祝新年好!

艾喜說得真好。難忘的兩三天一場夢。我講了天津詩人徐江《想象IMAGINE》一首,還有伊沙的《梦》,並且伊沙和徐江各種詩歌平台夢想。都是非常具体的、民间的、日常生活的東西。謝謝朋友們!多谢意大利汉学国际联邦!谢谢斯德哥尔摩大学漢學系以及遠遠從新西兰、澳洲等等來参加的学者!
小说 XIAOSHUO 小說
Earlier this month, I attended the conference Exploring the China Dream at Stockholm University – glorious good fun including more inspiring and informative presentations than I can mention here, so just a few samples:
At the panel on film and visual culture chaired by eminent organizer Elena Pollacchi, Prof. Paola Voci introduced us to different types of virtual soft power with hilarious and scary examples of short internet films like this one (》低头人生《 about what can happen to people who live with their heads glued to small screens).
Prof. Irmy Schweiger chaired my panel on dreams in literature, in which Martin Winter (who is much quicker on the keyboard than I am and has already blogged about it here and here) read us a poem by Xu Jiang and talked about his translations of Yi Sha’s dream inspired poetry. It reminded me of Jack Kerouac’s Book of…
