袁宏道 Man Road

This Ming Dynasty songwriter is "Man-Road"

Whoever this person is, they seem to a lot about Canada, Scandinavia, Hokkaido, Manchuko, Minnesota, northern areas. It's time to reflect on the presence of Amy Klobuchar and Al Franken, our leading northern politicians.

Lots of China lies south of Tokyo, Japan; which city Tokyo is at the latitude of Washington DC. There is a good onshore Pacific Ocean climate system bringing warm air in. It's not too difficult to look for a can of pineapple. Japan is interesting in its weather. Wintering in Tokyo is mild; the Pacific Ocean dominates the weather. Living in New England, one knows that the ocean exerts a temperate influence on weather. The mountains between the ocean side and the Russia side of Japan make a difference between the two. The north shore and the mountains get so much snow and cold air moving south from the Arctic.

It is difficult to find a particle of dust on the sidewalks of Tokyo. Korea is a little different; it's as though all that grit on the wind just falls right into the ocean, between the mainland and the Japanese archipelago.

Since this guy lived in Ming Era, it doesn't make a lot of difference what the weather might have been; there were no kerosene space heaters and it gets plenty cold anyway in the tropics, If one is a poet interested in how people work through the cold weather there is not much shortage of it at this historical time. In my experience of traveling there for a while, there's not much shortage of cold weather nowadays either.

Since "Ming" is the sun + moon dynasty, it is reasonable to expect people to write about the climatological relationship between people and the sun and the moon.

横塘渡 Horizontal Sugar Dike Degrees 袁宏道 详细内容 到百度里查
This word "horizontal" has something to do with not doing meth.
'I am married to the WNBA'

横塘渡，临水步。Horizontal Sugar Dikes, Basketball NBA, can you beat me?
郎西来，妾东去。WNBA is on as well, I should be a real feminist about it all

妾非倡家女，The WNBA sometimes doesn't deliver that sugar tropic grip
红楼大姓妇。It seems more like tomato juice or V-8 at times

吹花误唾郎，Sucking flower beauty invitations non-stop from those heavies
感郎千金顾。The highest paid player in this league earns many millions of dollars

妾家住虹桥，Meeting my family at the league dinner is quite a bit different
朱门十字路。There is no door being shown to anyone and we're building a professional life

认取辛夷花，If you recognize a Cheryl,
莫过杨梅树。You might also recognize a Reggie's brother, who is MBA at the league office


comment: Let's translate macho headgame concepts into unrealistic construction projects: We can build a wall of sugar to keep the water out of the city. It combines overeating, megalomania, municipal corruption and grandiosity!

comment: What if Tim Reid and Queen Latifah made a better version of Coach?

竹枝词 Construction Materials Budget 袁宏道

雪里山茶取次红，Snow sleep pleasure next Bloody Mary within 6 hours
白头孀妇哭青风。Blizzard Head Auntie Clean Winter Souls

自从貂虎横行后，Self Cleaning Human Furry Animal Very scalding Shower Water
十室金钱九室空。10 apartments are paying rent and 9 apartments are empty


Comment: I feel like I have built an inexpensive condominium complex outside of the city of Oslo.

棹歌行 Nice Table Song 袁宏道 详细内容 到百度里查

It's not a glass ceiling, it's a wooden table

妾家白苹洲，Our family has gone from a blizzard of apple blossoms to a blizzard of Apple Jacks brand cereal
随风作乡土；Our left-leaning wind is leaning on us
弄篙如弄针，We are supposed to never weaken our grip on the emperor's balls
不曾拈一缕。But the IRS is "processing" our tax return. Hmmmmm.

四月鱼苗风，Everything's great. The 'Mats obliterate the fishcat wind
随君到巴东。I have forgotten the midnight sun.

十月洗河水，October swimming season is here in the Northland
送君发扬子。High energy summer competition has come to an end

扬子波势恶，In plywood format, the poplar withstands the tsunamis of disgusting cold
无风粮亦作。It's a heaven wind to be sure, in here

江深得鱼难，Fakey feeling brand new winter outerwear belies the mega summer dare culture
鸬鹚充糕臛。If the loons don't need a coat, then why do I?

生子若凫雏, We're alive, sonny boy and sunny girl, because we eat those birds
穿江复入湖。Confusion works quickly in a clinically cold outdoor setting

长时剪荷叶，And now a vision of a winter leaf - a symbol of temperature discomfort - isn't very appropriate -
与儿作衣襦。Runes all come from winter work

comment: 'Mats = The Replacements, a popular northern sounding music group
