(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

When Crow cried his mother's ear

When he laughed she wept

Blood her breasts her palms her brow all wept blood.

He tried a step， then a step， and again a step -

Every one scarred her face for ever.

When he burst out in rage

She fell back with an awful gash³ and a fearful cry.

When he stopped she closed on him like a book

On a bookmark， he had to get going.

He jumped into the car the towrope

Was around her neck he jumped out.

He jumped into the plane but her body was jammed in the jet -

There was a great row， the flight was cancelled.

He jumped into the rocket and its trajectory⁴

Drilled clean through her heart he kept on

And it was cosy⁵ in the rocket， he could not see much

But he peered out through the portholes at Creation

And saw the stars millions of miles away

And saw the future and the universe

Opening and opening

And kept on and slept and at last

Crashed on the moon awoke and crawled out

Under his mother's buttocks.
