Duo Yu, from "Inside Me, It's All Darkness."
Real poets confront themselves first and foremost; poetry should become a tongue that speaks for personal salvation.
Duo Yu
Inside me, it’s all darkness. Since the beginning, I have been cautiously avoiding these dark corners, covering them up, but they grew steadily bigger until they became alienated and turned into a cancer of the spirit. Since the beginning, this has been the reality of my writing.
Duo Yu, from "Inside me, it's all darkness" (translated by Simon Patton).
