A POEM BY CHINESE POET TU FU



     romaire bearden




                Friendship


            A flick of the hand
            and it's rain or storm

            wherever I look
            change and fickleness

            the old ideal of friendship
            as loyalty and permanence

            has turned into dirt
            under our feet.



                                     ----Tu Fu  (712-770)
                          tr by David Young
