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

Haven't. Could you please post some poems before this thread becomes about women?

Parfois 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
