Mei Mei |
Mama I don’t want to run away |
You know that I could never stay |
If this letter never reaches home |
I wave goodbye to you and mei mei |
You know the placards and the common way |
You wore the hat that never fades |
You know the hatred for the grave |
Of everything you lost that day |
The rice grows faster than the hands can cut it down |
I can see it rising in the wind |
Withered palaces will never stop the rain from falling |
In between the cracks until the cracks turn into veins |
Flowing through another reign |
Don’t fear the truth that holds the world away |
Don’t fly the flag that never waves |
I saw a soldier with his gun |
Listening to the v.o.a. |
I curse the poster in the people’s way |
I curse the bottle to its grave |
And even so I know this rage |
Connects me with the ones I hate |
Time will lay its peonies upon your bed |
Fate will hold you helpless in its net |
And like a quickly fading song |
How soon the world forgets |
