A Floating Thread of Hope(by Sabina Sun)
A Floating Thread of Hope
— Salute to Hou’s Flight of The Red Balloon (2008)
Sabina Sun(06/30/2008)
On the triangle window roof after World War II
There is a slim thread of hope
Floating, deep heart whispering
On the blue sky
Lonely but solitude, A long camera catches
The red eye of an innocent boy, searching
On the metropolitan mono rail
Both sides of this town, sunny and dark
A twin city linking the other side of the earth
Tears and laughter, all inscribing onto a mother’s face
And her untuned piano
What an abundant expression of notes and tones
Through puppet’s fingers, right in-between
The poetic sound of silence
