Duane Vorhees writes

THE MAP OF THE BED WETTER

    -- after Yun Dongju

The map painted on the quilt
hung on the clothesline
Last night my younger brother 
painted it when he wet the bed

Is it a map of Heaven
where he went in a dream to meet Mama?
Or a map of Manchuria
where Papa went to work?

--tr. Duane Vorhees
