  Blaise Cendrars: Chinks
  
  Sea vistas
  Waterfalls
  Trees long-haired with moss
  Heavy rubbery glossy leaves
  Glazed sun
  High burnished heat
  Glistening
  I’ve stopped listening to the urgent voices of my friends discussing
  The news that I brought from Paris
  On both sides of the train close by or along the banks of
  The distant valley
  The forest is there watching me unsettling me enticing me like
  a mummy’s mask
  I watch back
  Never the flicker of an eye.

  —Trans, Dick Jones
