Finally Going to Peking University

2007/10/14 14:08:03

Once the answer is revealed, it's no longer a riddle. Finally — Peking University. To be precise, Peking University finally has its chance. That's enough said; what's meant to be known will be known in due time.

But regardless of whether it's Peking University, Tsinghua, or Nankai, the Chinese economy is about to face a critical juncture. While fools are talking in their dreams, the vultures are already in flight.

To close, here is a five-character regulated verse titled "Untitled." If Kong the Man is interested, he is welcome to compose a matching-rhyme response — provided he can understand it. Otherwise, this ID shall continue to hold the Chinese Literature Department in contempt.

Untitled

Chán Zhōng Shuō Chán

After rain the summer heat recedes
Clouds part, the western hills grow full
No sight of the sun sinking past towers
Only the sound of wind entering the curtain
Bookless, a pillow where one sleeps
In dreams, awareness lurks unseen
Ten thousand sounds deep as the sea
A slender moon, slender in distant sky
