it jumped by the force

I got this poem (translated from Mandarin) in my Alternative Drawing class. We're supposed to translate this poem into an A2 sized drawing. Text and texture.


The Barren July

the tongue of July licks and sucks my eyelight
the active human body shrivels
i use the charm of ink to bring out the soul's skin texture
the drawing pins array the solemn stirring expressions on my face
and the undulating roars of metal clangour

the city on the easel lacks blood
the newly-built old city walls (??) languidly let
their clitoris turn towards the sun
i use brushwork to modulate the mood
a lemon turns away its face
that day the sun's remnant power crippled
diarrhoea has its glorious day
the old street sells best aphrodisiac pills

the cay of july leaps onto the roof
casting a baby's cries to and fro




rock on
