Second Chinese Monologue from Three Travelers Watch a Sunrise

From Three Travelers Watch a Sunrise by Wallace Stevens

any · contemplative · 34 sec

Dew is water to see, Not water to drink: We have forgotten water to drink. Yet I am content Just to see sunrise again. I have not seen it Since the day we left Pekin. It filled my doorway, Like whispering women. First Chinese. And I have never seen it. If we have no water, Do find a melon for me In the baskets.
