Poem
Shuijing Zhulian
Love at First Sight
him and I: love at first sightdue to excess yearning
this slice of romance only lasted a day and a twilight
this slice of romance had only just shown up
jiggling its hips
when it left
right now I can’t recall any of it
right now I’m like someone who’s not ever loved: utterly
spotless and clean
