AWAY
Away from the environment,
how do I write in Chinese?
Especially a foreigner!
Looking at photos
and videos,
I realize again
when friends take a picture
they want to remember,
remember beauty,
being together,
and also
the vapid aggression,
destruction and ruin.

不在
(给上苑艺术馆2025年艺术家)
维马丁
不在中文环境
很难写中文
尤其是老外
看到朋友照片
和视频
就更知道
朋友拍的
都是想记得
记得美
记得在一块
也记得
荒谬霸气
坠毁空虚

英语也可以说任何语言,包括英语,离开了环境很难写出来。而那些荒谬等等,川普美国感觉也是。
In English I can talk about writing in any language, also English, while being away from the environment. I wrote this poem in Chinese in response to what happened last year and this year at a certain place in China. But the absurd aggression, the senseless destruction and ruin could also be Trump and Musk’s ‘work’, right? Or Putin and so on.

Wang Yimin
SOME KIND
Some kind of feeling, not beautiful at all.
Like an idiot, waiting
like an idiot, waiting
like an idiot, waiting.
When you want to chase after something,
waiting like an idiot.
