WHAT A FAVOR

This morning a piece of wild news
came to me from a close neighbor
which frightened me altogether.
A cadre of a Public Relationship Department
in a certain city of Northeast China
has developed a strange habit of robbery
as a spare time hobby and also a peculiar favor.
For five successive years he has successfully
done a great deal beyond his eight hours.

The poor among the poorest in imagination!
If it came from a mid-term composition,
It must be a stupidest onion!
If it were not from a respected professor,
I should regard it as a plot
with wicked intentions.

You may say it is rare in the Northeast.
In our province, Confucius’ hometown
Things are quite different.
Isn’t a party secretary expelled from the party
who himself can match a handful of robbers?

I doubt how a robber has become a cadre.
How a cadre has become a robber?
There is a key point lying in between.
To become a cadre in a government office,
you must first of all become a party member---
an iron law in China’s political career.

But I am muddleheaded for an exact answer:
How the evil become party members?
How the demoniac members turn fine cadres?
That is really a hot potato met with China!

As a matter of fact,
to be a party member is not an easy matter
For which the students vie with one another.
Reality explains itself by way of examples---
Through banquet and money,
the unqualified have the privilege to join the party.
Those absent most from classes are named monitors.

The party lecture goes above everything else.
The other courses must make way for it.
Hence arises another common sight:
The obscurer a college appears,
The hotter the competition turns.

In future days,
In future careers,
What shall these party members actually do
when their superiors have some special desires to satisfy?
when the foreign investors have some strange habit to develop?
