Maybe Zhu Yufu now watches
ever ascending prison guards
over-medicating dead shadows,
for insertion into anatomically
correct deep sea body bags as
the steam sterilization tanks
cleanse decomposition hiss,
and his red string of destiny
turns out to be aquatic razor
wire stretching out across vast
blue oceanography underworlds
expanding freedoms presence
秘密龙爪
可能现在朱虞夫手表
上升的监狱看的死的阴影，
对插入到解剖上里
正确深海尸体袋
蒸汽绝育坦克
洗涤分解嘘声，
并且命运他的红色串
结果是水生剃刀延长横跨浩大的导线
蓝色海洋学地狱
扩展自由存在

Poems for Zhu Yufu
AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL CONDEMNS HARSH SENTENCE FOR CHINESE POET ZHU YUFU
Press Release 10 February 2012-Today’s sentencing of veteran activist Zhu Yufu to seven-years for writing a poem deemed to "incite subversion of state power” is further evidence of the Chinese government’s continuing repression of anyone it perceives as directly or indirectly criticizing it policies, Amnesty International said.
For many years the Chinese government has stamped on dissent and today’s decision should be seen in the context of a growing demand in the country for more freedom.
Amnesty International condemns this direct and unjustified assault on Zhu Yufu’s basic human right to freedom of expression.
