[bodytext] => THE BLACK CAT by Khe Iem translated by J. Do Vinh The black cat with my soul and a piece of my rib, wakes up every morning not washing its face, every morning not brushing its teeth; the black cat with clay-like eyes, opening and closing, or open -ing and never closing, as it climbs up and down the stairs, dragging with it my soul and a piece of my rib, forgetting that i had lived much darker days, since when and why it was i had buried them in my pocket full of allusions, gathered from many different tales, strung together to make up this story about the black cat with my soul and a piece of my rib; of course, that is the black cat with clay-like eyes, not any other kind of eyes; even as, the black cat climbs up and down the stairs.
