Reply To Mao Tse-Tung
Legendary snow leopard
once roamed Chingkang Mountain,
strode mightily
over the Great Snowy Mountain…
His Long March cradled
sharpen claws;
he entered old age,
swam the Yangtze River
like a playful boy.
Thunderstorms come; a wilderness of snowflakes
fall across cities, countryside,
and nation-states;
An array of pale stars and stripes like a banner
of pale bones and blood
attempts to suffocate the world,
But heroes come again
amid a red sea of stars.
