Under the Winter Roof
Under the winter roof,
the curlicues, shells, and filaments of heat currents
rose to the naked hands with white webs in the dry winter as
all was icy and gray outside the translucid windows,
wind blaring as pine needles swayed and shrubs trembled—
The heart was touched, as if by a bowl of brown-sugared red bean soup,
or by the five-legged sinewed hands in Van Gogh’s self-portrait?
Taiwanese sweet potatoes, indigenous bee larvae,
pilgrim and Latino corns, Irish potatoes, African nara melons,
and, in wintry bleakness
outside, the red wine of the homeless.

圖書介紹 - 資料來源：TAAZE 讀冊生活 評分：
圖書名稱：Roses de Matin
Drawn from her Taiwanese childhood, life in Taiwan as well as the anecdotes of Chinese and Hakka ancestors, Sarah Yihsuan Tso’s debut collection of poems written in English dwells on a vast array of topics such as bias, culture, suffering, luck, philosophy of life, Christianity, Buddhism, sexism, poetics, beauty, ethnic and gender groups, manhood, womanhood, environmentalism, geopolitics, migration, immigration, nature, and the inexorable fate of mortality. Written in an audacious, refined, and unique language par excellence, the book wrenches sapience from troves of dazing and memorable lines like: “The fate of concession is worn daily” in “a land ceded from the Dragon King, the Eastern Neptune.” “In this country, women and children are / conjoined twins.”
