Nation shattered,
mountains and rivers stay;
The city is in spring, deep
in trees and weeds.
Lamenting the times,
flowers shed tears;
Regretting the parting,
birds cry in bleak heart.
Three months long
warming-fires burn on
towers;
A letter from home is worth
ten thousand gold.
The white hair thins from
fingering;
There’s hardly enough to hold a hairpin.

“Super Atari Poetry” (3 Atari 2600, Cartridges, Joysticks, TVs). Each cartridge contains a group of verses that are constantly changing colors which can be manipulated using a joystick. In this way, the audience can either freeze/move the colors or just move forward and backward the sentences. The reading of the 3 verses printed on the screens produces an interactive and coherent poem that’s always changing its meaning and chromatic structure. By Yucef Merhi.
