MALAYSIAN HAIKU/SENRYU ECHOES 312: SHOUTS OF EXCELLENCE
world watch great handshake
dominant voice dialogue
smirk with no sanction
excellence exclaim
dead buried in bygone past
end with salvo shouts
denuclearized dream
benefit with best bargain
fiend evolves to friends
POEM TRANSLATION ECHOES 310 & 311
Aussieian 2011 responded to haiku in a tanka thus:
Mere Tokenism Talk
僅是單純論
Expounding Global Accord
闡述全球的協議
False Smiles False Hand shakes
假笑假手動
And Humanity Evolves
随着人性的变化
To a World of Destruction
走向世界的毀滅
This tanka is my response to his tanka:
ONLY ONE
（僅有一個）
whiten and whitewash
美白和粉飾
America First accord
美國的首個協議
all false but power
全假但權力
obey or bomb to stone age
石器時代服或炸
only one mighty control
僅是個強暴控制
Y.C.. Kan responded to echoes 310 thus:
Smoking crack peace pipes
和平筦冒煙
Dirty bathing with flip flops
不鬆弛以肮脏浴
Streaking media show
裸奔媒体秀
This is my response:
SHOW TIME
（表演時間）
dream of dirty bath
梦想的肮浴
streak out with cool, clean image
裸跑外凉、圖像清
cherish costly fumes
懷有怒火高
POEM TRANSLATION ECHOES 309
SING WITHOUT MUSIC
（無音樂的歌）
two scoundrels talk peace
兩氓論和平
at murderous Pirates’ Bay
在兇狠的海盜灣
now a posh red spot
一個現代红
mistrusted meeting
無信任會議
peasy prey for an ambush
易行埋伏的捕食
hard headache for host
為主人頭疼
mongers for peace prize
販子和平獎
mutants win new world order
突赢世界新秩序
nobel not noble
諾貝爾無俨
Note:
Capela in Italian meant sing without music; though the architect was British. The Colonialist government positioned their artillery guns towards the Bay for Japanese invasion, but they came from the north by bicycles. The colonial government ran for their lives; leaving more than ten thousand local Chinese killed and drowned alive in the sea. The Novel committee for peace does not always have noble selection for candidates. The Singapore government spend more than S20 million to hold such a summit, not only to market the island to the world, but also to provide a chance for North Korea to open its door, for the benefit for all. Hopefully the notorious cowboys do not harbor rash movie drama during the summit.
