Butterfly Dream: Writer's Block Haiku by Jane Williams

English Original

writer's block
crisscrossing my keyboard
the same ant?


Jane Williams


Chinese Translation (Traditional)

寫作時大腦閉塞
在我的鍵盤上縱橫交錯地爬行
是同一隻螞蟻?

Chinese Translation (Simplified)

写作时大脑闭塞
在我的键盘上纵横交错地爬行
是同一只蚂蚁?

  1. L1 sets the theme and mood while the the observation about ants /distraction on writing in Ls 2&3 effectively enhances the "hai" (comic) aspect of the haiku.
