Hung Hung 鴻鴻

THE WORLD
世界*

Translated by Steve BRADBURY 柏艾格


The world is not outside, it’s here
In the trailers on this theater screen where every hour of the
  day
War and terror, love and laughter
Heroes and devils, celebrities and children
Flying or floating through
Prehistory and futurity
Pass before us like the visions of our souls
Myopic and heavy with sleep
The world is here
Inside this endless spectacle
Of formulaic teasers
No need to even buy a ticket
You can stand there and watch them time and again
And in everyone the people all speak English
