The new issue of Asian Cha is here, along with Iris Fan’s poem “In Memory of Leung Ping-Kwan [梁秉鈞]”

no southern terra other than this one
where once a painter dreamed of water
rising from an ancient river flooding his farm

And Hongkong poet Wong Leung Wo’s 王良和 “An Ode to the Tree Roots: Part III” 樹根三頌之三 as translated by Jessica Siu-yin Yeung:

In the first place, the desire to bloom hid in the seed
Becoming the source of strength for itself to struggle and to grow taller, to consider endlessly
Bursting into a luminous point of fixation

開花的欲望早藏在種子裡
成為自身搶高的力源，不斷盤算
爆向一個燦爛的定點

The issue also includes Yeung’s translation of a suite of poems by Wang Zang 王藏, apprehended for organizing a poetry event in support of the umbrella uprising.

Seriously,
From this day on, be a happy person.
Defend your rights happily, talk and act happily
Even though you live forever in the land of sorrow.

真的
从今天起，做一个快乐的人
快乐维权，快乐言行
即便长久活在悲伤的土地
