Autumn swans are all gone.
I am sick at inappropriate time,
Everyone has gone to the moon for a feast.
I ask my close friends
To steal the moon
And hang it on my window.

Sugar moon.Ciaotou Sugar factory

The wind and rain making noise all night The sea of fallen leaves around. See the sugar moon in gold waves Jump toward her And surely drown in gold leaf Because I don't know how swim. |
Metal forest. Shipyard
 | |
My world is covered by a metal forest And the moon stuck in the rusty trees. Risking my life I will go and release her even if I will die! My barren life in the metal woods.

At the straw store. Cishan
 |
Hats, bags
and umbrellas are all for sale
They are
made of straws and almost free!
Buy
something, strange foreigner!
Except
that the moon will be never yours
You can
only take away some moonlight

Homecoming. Meinong tobacco barns
 |
I
returned to my empty home remembering
My
father brought this firewood.
The unused
cold furnace
Was like
my fireless, empty heart.
But the
moon will bring a new fire
To me and
warm me again.

House for the moon. Meinong
 |
On the
roof of my run-down home,
There
are houses for birds
At a
higher place I built a house for the moon,
My heavenly friend.
I am happy
to stay on the broken Earth
As long
as the moon does not leave me.

Who washed ashore? Sizihwan
Was washed ashore of mine
The dead Tree and the live Moon.
Or me was washed to their shores
Me half-dead poet-nomad

At the top of the steps of a seaside temple
(How did I get here?) Stray cats treated me as a close friend And my moon, the best friend for all wanderers. Go where ever you want, The moon will never leave you! Leonid Tishkov.Private Moon.Kaohsiung.2012 |

Farewell to the Moon. Sizihwan
 |
The moon becomes brighter
Before she rises to the sky.
Which way should I take? By what river will I meet her? An empty boat berthed the quay Looks just like the moon.
Journey of the Private Moon to Formosa
