(Thirteen)

Each Autumn,
Regular public school,
Chinese School,
Spend every evening, Monday to Friday from seven to nine,
in class.


Millions of monarch butterflies,
migrate,
‘Living artefacts… carried forward through the year…’,
reaffirm and consolidate,
choosing the same trees
that were wintered in the year
before.


Longest land migration in North America.
An opportunity their identity, to express difference,
Cut off
all my hair
maintaining the continuity of particular values.


Hours seem to pass each autumn.

In Hong Kong her family had been in the (transit and service industry).
She arrived in Vancouver (carrying just me) in 1996. She was (Twenty-Eight).

Learned (//) Its real name (//) by tracing…
It spread all
the (...) rice
paper.
over
(To) pay (my) respects to the moon… (set-out) hundreds of brightly lit lanterns
to think of relatives and friends not present,
extending
best wishes to them.


(Trece)

Cada otoño,
Escuela pública común,
Escuela de chino,
pasando cada noche, de lunes a viernes de siete a nueve,
en clase.


Millones de mariposas monarcas,
migran,
"Artefactos vivos… sostenidos a través del año…”,
reafirman y consolidan,
eligiendo los mismos árboles
que invernaron en el año
previo


Migración terrestre más larga de Norteamérica
Una oportunidad
sus identidades, para expresar diferencia,
Cortar
todo mi cabello
manteniendo la continuidad de ciertos valores


Horas parecerían pasar cata otoño


(Nueve-Decimos)

El nombre de mi madre (es 甄艷秀 | Yan Yim Sau | Christina Yan).
En Hong Kong su familia había estado en la (industria de servicios y transporte público)
Llegó a Vancouver (llevándome en sus brazos) en 1996. Ella tenía (veintiocho)

(Un) Alzamiento,
aves volando en el aire
(Yo) miré los patrones formados por hormigas arrastrándose en el suelo y
lo copié
(Traté) de adivinar la imagen (...) palabras escritas o caracteres
(Yo) escribí el llanto a la revuelta en trozos de papel y los escondí en paste(—) contrabandeados (—)les


Aprendí(//) su verdadero nombre (//) trazando…

el (...) papel
de arroz
encima
Pagar (mis) respetos a la luna… (poniendo) cientos de linternas brillantes
