So Shanxi TV want to interview me.
This is my chance.
To say something that people will
never forget.

" In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes" said Andy Warhol, well I have less time than him.

If you had five minutes of fame
what would you say?
You have waited all your life
for this moment.
The cameras are on you
and the world is waiting.

What would you say?

Would you speak of those
who fall into hell or those who
fall into heaven?

Maybe you would tell the world
that you love your country, but
dreamed last night that the dogs of
Fenyang barked no more.

Or maybe like Ji Xianlin, you would say something about growing flowers for the benefit of all.

What would you say?

Today I tried to remember some faces.
I saw Katia, mischievous elf from Espoo.
Who showed me my soul.

And Susan from Fenyang.
Who wanted to love me.
And smiled with the trees.
A spirit so beautiful and bright.

Faces and more remembered.
A love softly glowing.
Now slipping away at the edge.

They come with cries of lamentations
and cautious sunlight.
And words clinking with every step.

Now is the time to read books
But how to tackle such a task
How to carry your traditions
When every bird feels uneasy
And chroniclers of future times
Only mourn the fallen
It is the men and women who live
Who make history
The others will not count
The agony of unrequited love
And wasted life.
Does not concern
The lonely dogs of Fenyang.
They are only interested
In an invisible curtain of foretelling lyrics
And the vibrant stares
Of those who give life to darkness.
We need to conserve our dwindling
supply of  ideas.
When the black wings have passed beyond
Who will be left to read books?
