情歌《月亮代表我的心》

The Dunce

He says no with his head
but he says yes with his heart
he says yes to what be loves
he says no to the teacher
he stands
he is questioned
and all the problems are posed
sudden mad laughter seizes him
and he erases all
the words and figures
names and dates
sentences and snares
and despite the teacher’s threats
to the jeers of infant prodigies
with chalk of every color
on the blackboard of misfortune
he draws the face of happiness

Translation: Lawrence Ferlinghetti

Finalmente, de manera natural aprenderás a hablar sobre los sintomas y los remedios que hay para esta enfermedad.
