    Poetry writing course: exercise ten

    Window
    An obscure corner of a house
    Papers scattered around
    Characters spilled into pieces
    Of which in the midst
    Crouched is a writhing man
    Submerged in a gentle illumination
    Covered in photons, the sore clusters
     
    Along the direction of his head
    Slant is the wintry sunset
    A path dimly pours in
    From the silhouetted windowpane
    Outside against the lilac skyline
    A wisp of rosy mist wavering
    And beyond, boundlessness
     
    Another obscure house
    The same slant of sunset
    With a touch of yellow old
    Through a different windowpane
    Shining, to the opposite wooden wall
    On which a silhouetted woman
    Waving her hand to the remote
    And beyond, boundlessness

    Noumenon

    Slices of sunset pour down
    Then golden particles float among the air
    Then golden particles filter between the bare
     
    Cool wind blows over the autumn
    Then pieces of shadows flow
    Then different paths change
     
    Balalaika trembles from the remote
    Then light gleamingly shining the above
    Then hearts waning like the lute of love
     
    Outside the causality of phenomenon
    Where is that dwelling place
    Of the reality, of that very noumenon

    Home

    The door slightly opens
    Out dimly radiating
    The light, and shadows
    Floating on the wall
     
    Slowly zooming you in
    The white hot light
    Soughing leaves beaming above
    Silver path winding beneath
     
    Summoning from distance
    The Duet, Soar to the azure
    Diminishing in the air
    Fading, in the memory

    In-class exercise within 20minutes, based on a photo
     
    Above
    Grayish atoms permeate
    Rolling, storming and thundering
     
    Beneath
    A withered leaf mute
    A stone path unmoved
    Shadowing, subtle lights
    Interlock, on the extending of the time
     
    In between
    A red tiny girl
    A mysterious smile
    A zest in solitude
    For the past, condensing in one minute
    Diminishing, along her stretching hand

    Poetry writing course: exercise six

    A Gloomy Evening
    Leaves soughing in the wind
    Yellow, withered, variegated
    Dancing, the tiny holes
    Moth-eaten traces
     
    You squeeze through the crowd
    You begin to talk to me
    Your voice sounds
    Something seizes my core
    Tears, swell in my heart
     
    I lower my head
    Drooping my eyes
    Your voice keeps
    My tears swells
    Yet I cannot say a word
    Yet I cannot say a word
     
    Dusk condensing out
    Wind pooping the panes
    Yes I know, quite well
    I know, all of these, clearly
     
    Wind wraps leaves, knocking on the door
    Wind wraps leaves, rustling across the chill
    Yes I know, quite well
    I know, all of these, clearly
     
    Yes I know, all of these
    Even lowering my head
    I know, all of these
    Even drooping my eyes
    Even hairs, curtain before me
    I know
    All of these, clearly
     
    Tears swell in my heart
    Pins prick on my core
    I look into you
    Looking into you
    Yet I cannot say a word
    I cannot say a word
    Mute, dumb, being forever

    Poetry writing course: exercise five

    Life
    Splitting, the abrupt rupture
    Twigs whiz out of my bosom
    Budding in a flash
    Wavering among the air
     
    Rocketing, the frantic growth
    Unto a bang with the interior
    A bell-shaped container
     
    So solid, so transparent
    Cold, like fine particles
    Sneaking into my body
     
    I do twine about the wall
    I do tear upon the wall
    I do gnaw into the wall
     
    Yet stuck in a closed space
    Diminishing, bit by bit
    Reduced to nothing
    Spontaneous process irreversible
