One You Might Know Poem by Luo Zhihai

★ One You Might Know

☆ Poetry by Douglas Scotney


People love caricatures

who break the law
for the good of their country;

who break it for their own good,
then have to get their wives to make the money;

who say 'the country's too big to be...
...it's business that's depressed';

who laugh when they're watched making love
and get angry when they're not;

and who eat and drink
and talk a lot.

★ 你可能知道一件事

☆ [澳大利亚] 道格拉斯•斯科特尼 诗
☆ [中国] 罗志海 译


人们喜欢漫画

谁触犯法律
为了国家的利益

谁为了自己利益触犯法律
那么必须让自己的妻子弄钱去

谁说“国家太大以至于不能被......
这么萧条的生意”

他们看做爱的时候最爱笑
生气时，没有笑

谁又吃又喝
还谈了很多
