白小二三事


贴在雪白墙上的抗议
一夜之间被涂黑

再不写下周就变成敏感课题了
报社编辑催促一个慢郎中的评论作者

巡回式教育政治讲座绕了地球仪一圈之后
学舌的鹦鹉竟也背得出内容

又有不听话的政府公务员接到
解释为何不被开除的信

庙里上课的学生望着对街的学校思索
学校犯了什么罪,要被铐上手铐?

一家国营电视台来采访
顺便将被采访的人和想要的答案一起带来

A Few Matters Related to Baixiao

The protests that were pasted on the snow-white wall
Had been painted black in just one night

It would be classified under sensitive issue by next week; please write it fast
A newspaper’s editor rushed a slow-pave commentator

After the political educational forum road shows circled the globe one round
The mimicking parrot can recite the contents effortlessly

There was another disobedient civil servant
Received a show cause letter

The pupils studied in the temple stared at the school across the road and pondered
Why was it chained with handcuff, what’s the crime that my school had possibly committed?

A government owned television station came to interview
Conveniently taking with him the chosen interviewees along with the intended answers
