Wang Xiaochuan
JETZT WEISS ICH WAS HEULEN UND WEHKLAGEN HEISST
am eingang von der notfallambulanz
eine frau
hält ein kind
sitzt auf den stufen
heult und klagt
ich seh das kind
hat an diesem winterabend
nackte füße
es ist fest zusammengewickelt
ich seh noch
in der nähe
einen mann
er kommt weinend her
umarmt die heulende frau
auf den stufen
die security
werfen die beiden
auf den gehsteig
vor das tor des universitätskrankenhauses
die beiden
halten immer noch
das fest zusammengewickelte kind
mit nackten füßen
das sich nicht rührt
und heulen und klagen

GOD
god is for humans
god is for earthquakes
god is for bishops
god’s for the birds
god is for pawns
god is for efforts
god is for nothing
god’s beyond words
MW 3/16/16
For David Howard

CHILDHOOD GAMES
they tied my hands and my feet
let me hop up the stairs to second floor
if I made it all the way up
hopping up without falling
I would get a handful of candy
tight ropes around hands and feet
I had to hop like a frog
the first jump was easy
the second stair was not too bad
it got hard later on
grinning grown-ups upstairs on the landing
their hands full of candy
gleaming in colours
I held down my pain
kept telling myself to be strong, to go on
many times I almost fell on the stairs
but in the end I held on to myself
I raised my small hands up together
thanking someone somewhere beyond
I finally got the candy I dreamed of
then grown-ups got bored and dispersed
