DENKMAL
Im WeChat
tauschen positive Nachbarn Erfahrungen aus.
Einer sagt,
“Ich hab so hohes Fieber gehabt,
ich war ganz dumm im Schädel.
Ich hab immer an Dr. Li gedacht,
dem ist es sicher noch schlechter gegangen,
so schade.”
“Welcher Dr. Li, Li Wenliang?”
“Ja! Genau der.”

群里
阳了的邻居
在交流体验
一个说
“我高烧的时候
都烧傻了
一直脑子里在想那个李医生
他肯定更难受
可惜呀。”
另一个问她
“哪个李医生
李文亮？”
“对！是他”

EMPRESS DOWAGER TRUMP
When he said
“America first!“,
when he said
“No-one understands better than I“,
when he said
“Drink disinfectants to cure the virus!“;
when he withdrew from even more groups and assemblies,
when he put even more business and people from China
on sanctions lists;
I saw a shadow behind him,
of a dowager empress from the Qing dynasty.
I was thinking,
shouldn’t I remind folks in America,
but
wouldn’t they think I had idle concerns?

莫高
当他说
“美国优先”
当他说
“没人比我更懂”
当他说
“喝消毒液可以治病”
当他宣布退出更多的群
当他把更多中国人和中国公司
纳入制裁名单
我在他身上看到
清朝一个太后的影子
我在想
要不要提醒一下美国人民
那么
他们会不会觉得我操空心

WHAT WAS IT THAT RUMSFELD SAID?
there are things we know, there are things we don’t know.
there are things everyone knows we know we know them.
there are things no-one knows we don’t know them
and there are things we don’t know we know them.
the point is we know there are things we don’t know we don’t know them.
I memorized these lines and made a guy listen.
he was dying with laughter, tears in his eyes.
sometimes I think rumsfeld wasn’t bad after all.
made you laugh like a baby, laugh yourself silly.
made me say this world is actually nice
to make one person happy.
