LÜ Yue
乖
Language: chinese
Translations:
german (brav sein) 乖
别哭——乖！
我的小乖乖，
我没有别的只有你。
别跑，乖
我的小兔子，
要知道你没有腿。
别喊，乖
我的小疯子，
大家都知道你已喝醉。
别做梦，乖
我的小傻瓜，
梦里带你飞的都是魔鬼。
别活，乖
最乖的快过来排成一队。
乖不乖？乖不乖？
我的小心肝小宝贝。

* 05.11.1972, Hubei Province, China
lives in: Beijing, China
LÜ Yue (pseudonym of LÜ Yalan) born in 1972, lives in Beijing and is Editor-in-Chief of the Beijing News. She gained her doctorate in Literature in 2014. In her poems she combines journalistic materials with poetic elements. She is notable for her clear and courageous language in which she draws attention to the absurdity of the ‘current events’ being talked about – a subtle form of criticism, also of traditional social power structures. In her texts she introduces a feminist perspective which is fractured by an ironic and sometimes sarcastic tone. Comedy effects meet linguistic complexity and a profound awareness of history. Literary critic Zhu Dake describes LÜ Yue’s play with the ambiguities of Chinese idioms as confusing and attractive at the same time, like an optical illusion created by the “irregular stripes in a tiger’s fur”. LÜ Yue’ awards include the Luo Yihe Poetry Prize.
