Brace yourself

Brace yourself, lit’ sister
You’re worthwhile to see the light
As you don’t encourage injustice.

Brace yourself, lit’ brother
You are worthwhile with teaching and learning
As you don’t sponge the cruelty.

Brace yourself, friend
You’re worthwhile to be good child of respectable parentage
As you don’t sit by oppression.

Brace yourself, brother.
You’re worthwhile to be a mankind
As you don’t fan murder.

Brace yourself, sister
You’re worthwhile to be a lady
As you don’t admire shamelessness like a master.

Brace yourselves, the youth
You’re worthwhile to be bowed as dutiful generation in history
As you aren’t so selfish that you fight for future destroyed by military junta.

(Moe Chun)

Living

Like a puppy who prostrates
When military junta consoles it,
I never want to survive.

Like a bootlace that was ordered
In ever step of military junta,
I never earn my living.

I hope the ocean of real Federal Democracy,
For my living,
Let it be,
Let it be.

(Moe Chun)

Press conference (11/22)

When opening his mouth,
Intestine come from palate and shake hands.

Sentences derive from tongue with pretence
And are without trouser.

His face is powdered
But is sweaty like a weary prostitute.

To tell lie extremely,
It needs some microphones and a few people whose tongues are severed.

In a hall
A comic who murders public
Is standing by state.

Crowded flies on smell of meat are asking. Questions are buzzing,
Answers are sweaty.

The bloodstained jacket becomes red.

Hall gracelessly prepares dead body which waits for its owner.

(Moe Chun)
