New Year Poem
A child carrying flowers walks toward the new year,
a conductor tattooing darkness,
listens to the shortest pause,hurry a lion into the cage of music
hurry stone to masquerade as a recluse
moving in parallel nightswho’s the visitor? when the days all
tip from nests and fly down roads
the book of failure grows boundless and deepeach and every moment’s a shortcut
I follow it through the meaning of the East
returning home, closing death’s door-by Bei Dao
