Day-Like Nights

Day-like nights
By Luxu

The car wheels roll over
The Horn sounds wildly
The street lamp has its claws
A Vaunted fake moon
Shakes the half of the sky with light
 
The night sobs behind the hills
Stars hide away
People love the light
Better than the dark
The days are stretched like people themselves

A bundle of breaking rubber bands
A cunning fox'tail
A group of drowning men
A last straw
All march out
Deep into the night

Late Autumn Days

Late Autumn Days 
By Stina lu

It is late autumn now.
The leaves keep silent 
to the endless teasing of sun and wind. 
Occasionally they tumble and rumble in response.

The red kite is kidnapped 
by the cherry branches in the name of love.
He's not depressed.
Since the blue sky is only for dreams
It’s better to break the wings 
and  forget flying.
You see the water of the East lake
Tranquil and gentle in the wind of the four seasons.

It’s late autumn now.
Days are trembling in your north.
In my south
They look like flowery ladies
waiting for someone to come back.

Claiming

Claiming

In the gathering darkness
The land opened its mouth wide
To swallow all the wind
You boasted
To swallow up all the ill-gotten gains

Darkness devoured your face
And adopted your greedy soul
Dancing wildly were your limbs in the air
Like a puppet pulled by Satan

Blowing over my ears was the wind 
And your screaming
The higher the roar was
The deeper my sorrow was

It was dignity
 That was thrown into the bottom of the hell

The Ten Daggers

The  Daggers  
by Stina Lu

I spent  thousands of years
burning my flesh
Casting, hardening, forging ...
The daggers

Put one of them
on the summit of the Olympus
The holy gods feared 
and disappeared 

Pierced one in the long and narrow island 
on the margin of the Pacific Ocean
It arrogated the grace of the sun
Killing and looting in the name of its glory 

One was stabbed  
into the heart of the main land
Black blood erupted  and flew
breeding dizzy modern civilization

One flied  into the vast  heaven
My footsteps clopping heavily 
Make the moon and stars 
trembling all day and night

Two were inserted 
to  the  north and south frozen pole
The bears and emperor penguins
drifted all around with no home

The other daggers 
were used to cut the river of history 
Smash the memories into tiny pieces 
Forget all the evil things I have done

Self-Dissection

Self-dissection
By Stina lu 

Stab yourself with a sharp dagger 
Fresh blood splashing
No one stops you
There’s no piercing scream
No one scolds you 
There's no worry about curses and reprisals

To air your pure heart in the sunlight
Wipe gently the humble soul
To hold your guts high up in the sky
Let the moon and the sun penetrate and judge.

Stop the bee humming in your head
Place reason on the left brain
and passion on the right side. 
They don’t owe each other.

Dust covered thick in your lung
which should be peeled layer by layer.
Make your breath smooth again
Every alveoli feels fresh

After all this labor
Clean the wound and suture it 
Time will erase it 
A new lease on life
A reborn phoenix arises from the ash

Life Themes

Two bulbs in the living room are broken
The light is lying down on the sofa
Fatigue and weak
The tag in the toilet leaks
day and night it drops
There is no sound from the TV speaker
Just let it be silent

If someone ask you out for a date 
You dare not to say yes
Eat, Drink, and walk alone
Waiting for someone on WeChat to respond
Desperate love in throat it congested
and cannot be taken out

A woman without a lover
Clasp a few poetic lines to sleep
to warm heart
by the moonlight outside the window

To See the Sea

Through the crowds and traffics
Rumors about how to get near you 
like waves after waves

Hope to come closer 
to hear you breathing
to see you streaking in the sun
Your body is gleamed with silver
like countless fish scales dancing around
Boats and nets are on the shore
eyes wide open, irresistible to 
your fatal attraction

You are a thick book
full of memories of the rocks
and a pearl’s spoony waiting days
Tides come and go
whispering shallow songs

Time is the anchovies in your embrace
shaking out a salty taste

Sunshine

Sunshine
By Stina lu 

The sunshine dived for my face
Covered the crow's feet of years
It's almost a blessing
My cheeks were flushed
Like a long gaze in the depths of time
The heat which I could not avoid

Love or intrigue
Boisterousness or loneliness
Arrogance, depression, greed, regret…
And a middle-aged woman's transient joy 
All have been kidnapped by the sun
With air drying and sun curing 
They turn into specimens of memory
Even death can be lifelike

Only my soul has escaped
for which the sun is still on the hunt
A hermit of cowardice and pride
curls up in the shadow of the city
in collusion with time and tide
It hates the darkness
but commits to it

The Goldfish Bowl

The Goldfish Bowl


Once injected with water, sorrow becomes colorless and tasteless
Inside the glass bowl, all lives
only live seven seconds

The same route, again and again --
The beginning is the end. Stubborn as Sisyphus

Eyes watered and drifted away
A trace of love burns 

I have a sister on Flower Road
She is the most colorful fish in the bowl
No brand, just serve regular customers
I've always been fascinated by the sublime sense of her up-rolling eyes

In the goldfish bowl
Happiness is greater than loneliness
The men and women of Flower Road know it
When I walk by 
with my head down
Stares in the dark shoot me like arrows

My sister sleeps at dawn,
wakes at night
and  easy to forget all “should”
or “should not”

Longing For a Heavy Rain

Longing for a Heavy Rain

From the depths of the earth
arises  a nightmare and sickness
Like the wind, soul lost
Seeking for nothing everywhere

Sea rolls up waves 
Sky gathers dark clouds
Birds sway with the branches
The world is gripped by a raging disease

From toes to forehead
The blood flows backward like boiling water
Every organ is crying for help
Mind in chaos

A heavy rain is desperately needed
 To comfort the world
