IM NATURHISTORISCHEN MUSEUM

ein specht
hängt in der luft
ein eichhörnchen
an einem baum

ein larvenroller
ein schopfwespenbussard
ein goldfasan
eine kleine indische zibetkatze

an einem dünnen draht
aufgespannt
spielen sie im
paradies

Übersetzt von Martin Winter im Oktober 2016

NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM

a woodpecker
hangs in the air
a squirrel
hangs on to a tree

then there are a masked palm civet
a crested honey buzzard
a golden pheasant
a small Indian civet

they are holding on to
a very thin wire
playing their games
in paradise

Yi Sha 伊沙: IN AMERICA, THINKING OF ZHONG PIN

Yi Sha
IN AMERICA, THINKING OF ZHONG PIN

at vermont studio center
in front of maverick writing studio
a squirrel
shoots up a big maple tree
I think of you
I want to prove
to the world
in our time
there is still one person
who was unhappy
‘cause he did not become a poet
he could not find peace
that person was you
how does that sound
like a winter’s tale
but here in our world
there are no fairy tales
in fact you told me
25 years ago
“I am a hedonist
and would not be content
to become a poor poet …”
so I have to say
you did what you wanted
you followed the masses
went like all the people
so I relax
and the squirrel
jumps from the tall maple tree
to look at me
in his little eyes
I see only joy
no fear at all
it must be you
your soul is in heaven
