Marilyn Chin >> back to poet page >> back to book page Family Restaurant Empty Lotus Room, no patrons Only a telephone rings and rings Muffled by an adjoining wall He murmurs to a distant lover His wife head-bent peeling shrimp Hums an ancient tune about magpies His daughter wide-eyed, little fists Vows to never forgive him His shadow enters the deep forest Blackening the shimmering moss Blues on Yellow The canary died in the gold mine, her dreams got lost in the sieve. The canary died in the gold mine, her dreams got lost in the sieve. Her husband the crow killed under the railroad, the spokes hath shorn his wings. Something's cookin' in Chin's kitchen, ten thousand yellow bellied sap suckers baked in a pie. Something's cookin' in Chin's kitchen, ten thousand yellow bellied sap suckers baked in a pie. Something's cookin' in Chin's kitchen, die die yellow bird, die die. O crack an egg on the griddle, yellow will ooze into white. O crack an egg on the griddle, yellow will ooze into white. Run, run, sweet little Puritan, yellow will ooze into white.

28. Marilyn Chin, The Phoenix Gone, The Terrace Empty marilyn chin, The Phoenix Gone, The Terrace Empty (Milkweed Editions,1994). When my friend Cat was graduating from the University http://www.rambles.net/chin_gone.html

Marilyn Chin, The Phoenix Gone, The Terrace Empty (Milkweed Editions, 1994) When my friend Cat was graduating from the University of California at San Diego with a master's degree in poetry, she asked me to come along to her thesis reading. I got all gussied up and wound my way through the intellectuals and non-conformists-by-design and waited for Cat to get up and read so I could get a glass of wine and go home. Cat's professor and mentor got up first to read, intending to prime the audience somehow with her professor-ly works and introductions to the candidates for graduation. It was this small Asian woman with red lips and horn-rimmed glasses who seemed a little scattered and lost, tripping over words, but pronouncing the ones she was able to speak with an undeniable clarity and emphasis. It was almost as if the woman was enjoying the taste of the words instead of just the meaning of them. The woman was Marilyn Chin, and after her readings, she was promptly forgotten in the rush of hoopla surrounding Cat and her two contemporaries. A few weeks later I was on the way to Wal-mart for some stupid thing I couldn't get elsewhere, listening to NPR as I drove. Just as I was about to switch off the car, Terri Gross announced an interview with Chin, and played a portion of her poem "Song of the Sad Guitar."

The reading is presented under the auspices of the Gertrude Clarke Whittall Poetry and Literature Fund. Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry Rita Dove will introduce the poets. Tickets are not required. Marilyn Chin was born in Hong Kong and reared in Portland, Oregon. She is the author of Dwarf Bamboo (1987) and The Phoenix Gone, The Terrace Empty (1994), and is on the faculty of the M.F.A. program at San Diego State University. She is a recipient of a Stegner Fellowship, two National Endowment for the Arts Writing Fellowships, and a Mary Roberts Rinehart Award. Her collection The Phoenix Gone, The Terrace Empty has been widely acclaimed. Poet June Jordan, in Ms., wrote: "In Marilyn Chin's poetry we encounter a foremost Asian American poet who has become more deeply thoughtful, and therefore more agitated, and angry, about the American part of her being here. . . . I cannot imagine a more compelling collection of poems centered on the difficult gift of racial and cultural double consciousness."

Marilyn Chin Rhapsody in Plain Yellow Poems A fusion of east and west, high culture, popular culture, and ancient Chinese history mark this distinguished collection. Rhapsody in Plain Yellow is a collection of songs that dance across the terrain of emotional nuance and postmodern experimentation: from homages to Li Po to polyphonic samplings of Emily Dickinson; from ballads of eternal love to lamentations. Marilyn Chin, with her multilayered, multidimensional, intercultural singing, elegizes the loss of her mother and maternal grandmother and tries to unravel the complexities of her family's past. She tells of the trials of immigration, of exile, of thwarted interracial love, and of social injustice. Some poems recall the Confucian "Book of Songs," while others echo the African American blues tradition and Western railroad ballads. The title poem references the Han Dynasty rhapsody but is also a wild, associative tour de force. Political allegories sing out with personal revelations. Personal revelations open up to a universal cry for compassion and healing. These songs emerge as a powerful and elegant collection: sophisticated yet moving, hard-hitting yet refined.

Lot's wife cannot resist the temptation and, as they rush from the great fire storm erupting behind them, she does look back and is immediately turned into a pillar of salt. The fear of looking back and yet the compulsion to look back at the country that one has left behind infuses much cross-cultural writing in the United States today. The experience of immigration is a central fact in the lives of Asian, Hispanic, Mid-Eastern, Slavic, Irish, and Italian families in America. Even when the immigration is several generations removed, cross-cultural writers searching for their roots must in one way or another grapple with the event itself. For many families, immigration is a traumatic experience. Expelled out of their homelands, immigrants must suffer the treacherous journey to America and then survive in a different and frequently hostile host culture. Families do not easily talk about these experiences. Migrations are frequently shrouded in silence and an unspoken prohibition not to look back. For Asian immigrants in America, the subject of this paper, silence about origins in Japan or China has been a necessary course as they have attempted to assimilate into a dangerous, frequently racist environment. During the era of the Exclusion Acts and the internment camps of World War II, having Asian origins and cultural identity incurred enormous penalties: job and home loss, deportation, even imprisonment and death.
