Necktie (English/Chinese/French) Poem by William Marr

Necktie (English/Chinese/French)

NECKTIE

Before the mirror
he carefully makes himself
a tight knot

to let the hairy hand
of civilization
drag him
on

領帶

在鏡前
精心為自己
打一個
牢牢的圈套

乖乖
讓文明多毛的手
牽著脖子走


Cravate


Devant le miroir
Il fait lui-même

Son nœud de cravate
Bien serré
Pour laisser la main velue
de la civilisation
Traîner

Sur lui.

(French translation by Athanase Vantchev de Thracy)
