酷我-北美枫

[anna]

---last night, I dropped off at AGM and talked with Mr. P. Mansaram and Stuart Keeler... promised to write a poem... here it is.

The Collage

I ask Mr. P. Mansaram,
“Any story for it?”
“No. I just happened to carve a huge rock
and built a room inside.
When a lady stood there,
I took a photo, and made this painting.”

No story.
Why this carved dark cow stares at me
and the lady so familiar?
I guess lately I have too many thoughts of my own sister.
Last night I dreamt of her.

But no news is good news.
This spring, I got news and flew back.
With silk scarfs I brought to her,
I soothed my sister,
“Wrap your hair with them,
You will look more beautiful!”

The lady in the painting faces away from us,
shaded by a long red scarf.
Surely I bought a red one for my sister.
Mr. P. Mansaram doesn’t know our story,
he smiles:
“You could write any story for it.”

But no news is good news.
I fear to write any.
