"My Montage" - A Poem

Updated: Jun 4, 2023

Author: Joey Zhou

Translated from Chinese poem

Music - YouTube Link: "Love is Just a Dream"

When I am inspired, I feel satisfied, when I am satisfied, I feel empty, when empty; so I follow the music, and when the music plays, I feel lonely....

Clam Chowder in an iron pan in a clean kitchen

Groaning...,

The lemon hanging on the side of the transparent cup is soaked with ice tea

Looking out the window...,

Life is an ant slowly getting out of the gap in the sink

Creeping out...,

A daffodil stares at the shadow in the mirror

Lingering is shining

The shower head is pouring behind the faint bathroom glass

Raindrops and teardrops...,

A ray of sunlight shines into the memory behind the screen windows on the land

Even dust is flying with notes...,

At this moment, inexplicable autumn leaves are choked in his chest

Wandering, wandering, wandering again...!

Oh, Montage! I want to drink coffee and loneliness

A few flying bees shuttled back and forth among the wildflowers

Dancing to my heart's content, my dedication...,

Put on a beige windbreaker and shake off a breeze

Look, the German Wolfhound named Xiao Hei is staring at me...,

The engine finally broke the deadlock and started the behemoth

Winding up the mountain to the crossroad...,

It turned out that the clam chowder was scorched in the pot with red eyes waiting for me to clean up the mess.

Oh, Montage, I want to drink coffee and loneliness

When I am inspired, I feel satisfied, when I am satisfied, I feel empty, when empty, so I follow the music, and when the music plays, I feel lonely.
