drooling

how to make myself believe in all those things that may come true someday?

I've been stringing on sending mails and calls for at least two or three months. dream list may sound a bit improbable, but it's exactly because the list hasn't thoroughly confirmed yet. that makes all these sound dreamy, cos they haven't come real yet.

I don't expect to do something enabling the readers to doff their caps off, but, still, it's my fave city. I dreamt of studying another MA in the future, yet I know it's impossible to go back to London or have the same fun there again since all my fellas had gone back to Taiwan. So, this London Special has become the only chip I have, literally the only bet. 

crap or claps? just one more month, I'll get the answer. 

really agitated now and wish God could be the 'woman' to save the little 'girl-woman' with her unorganised mess. 

Adrienne Rich

Memory says, want to do it right? Don't count on me...
I'm a canal in Europe where bodies are floating
I'm a mass grave I'm the life that returns
I'm a table set with room for the Stranger
I'm a field with corners left for the landless
I'm a man-child praising God he's a man,
I'm a woman who sells for a boat ticket

I'm an immigrant tailor who says A coat
is not a piece of cloth only

........................................................

I have dreamed of Zion I've dreamed of world revolution
          I'm a corpose dredged from a canal in Berlin
A river in Mississippi. I am a woman standing
I am standing here in your poem, Unsatisfied.


'An Atlas of the Difficult World' (1991)





I read this from 'The Location of Culture'(Bhaha), and found it really beautiful yet melancholic by implicating global minorities's situation.

English Tsai

結果，我最後還是沒有行使民主的權利。

自從副手變吳敦義以後，我一點也不想投給馬英九。

想賭看看English Tsai，可是說實在也不認為她的團隊四年內能夠大幹一場，政策裡說要制衡房價不繼續上漲，這根本就不可能，操盤的又不是總統。畫大餅畫得很大很美，觀察力夠好，語言能力好，誰都能收買人心，問題是選上之後的四年，她的團隊能帶給我什麼？一個破碎的大餅？

所以我又退卻了。

只是選完總統後，英文的氣度跟感謝信叫人動容，這件事情足以代表他的個性思維，不再與民進黨掛鉤，這也許也是最好的選擇。民主進步，應該是像她這樣聰明的進步，而不是只用激進的手段或者口水戰。我期待她找到更好的back-up團隊，捲土重來。
