Has anybody here read Gu Cheng? Hes such a good poet but surprisingly 100% slept on in the West. His poems make me unbearably sad
>>24535912 (OP)What language(s) did he write in?
>In October 1993, Gu Cheng attacked his wife with an axe before hanging himself.[2][3] She died later on the way to a hospital. The story of his death was widely covered in the Chinese media.[4]
I'VE JUST ABOUT MCFUCKIN' HAD IT

>>24539354Parfois les absents sont là
Plus intensément là
Mêlant au dire humain
au rire humain
Ce fond de gravité
Que seuls
ils sauront conserver
Que seuls
ils sauront dissiper
Trop intensément là
Ils gardent silence encore
