The starting price for this condo is 600,000

The starting price for this condo is 600,000
With southern exposure to sunlight
Which has been put on the market by global citizens

The interior is appealing
The surfaces are smooth
To pay rent is monthly bleeding
Mortgages are the popular thing

Such wonders are here to serve us
All the world wholeheartedly agrees
Since society's connections are packaged for sale
There is no escape for connection-seeking poets

And yet
Since age sixteen I was packaged by poetry
I acquiesced to becoming its commodity
How strategic and far-thinking, this poetry business is!
Before society's makings could come together, it pounced on me
Within the package of poetry I met my underground buddies
Mang Ke and Bei Dao and DuoDuo

诗歌下手更早

这套公寓起价六十万
朝南
地球人的阳光也有价格

看上去很美
摸上去舒服
付钱租用
买断更受欢迎

多么美好的服务
既然整个社会已被打包成商品
诗人也不可能跑掉
但是我在十七岁那年
就被诗歌打了包
所以早已是它的身下之人！

多么深思熟虑的诗歌啊
十七岁
在我踏上社会之前
之前我还在它的包里遇到了
食指、芒克、北岛和多多
