EVERY MORNING’S RAINBOW
Written in Chinese by Qi Guo
Translated into English by Ouyang Yu
A red hat
An orange tie
A yellow shirt
A green coat
A black trousers
Two blue socks
Two pink shoes
Placed in the bed
In the shape of my death
Naked, I
Circle around this bed
And read my memorial speech three times
And then put them on one by one
Walk out the door
Like someone alive

FACES IN THE MIRROR
Written in Chinese by Qi Guo
Translated into English by Ouyang Yu
Having nothing to do
I look at the face in the mirror
I look and look and see my son’s face
I look and look and see my son’s girl friend’s face
I look and look and see his girl friend’s mother’s face
I look and look and see her mother’s lover’s face
I quickly wash my face
And look again
