Bui Chat

Bùi Chát: Difficult to see


The development of the arts
Can end a dictatorship

So many have said
Things like that

The artists who drink on the pavement
Tell about equivocality

A needle hidden in a wrap of cloth
For days would turn into poetry

We 
The unwelcomed citizens

Whichever way the wind blows
We banter
(Translation from Vietnamese: Lê Dình Nhát-Lang)
