–Mao Zedong – 1961 Above Mount Jiuyi, white clouds fleet and fly,The imperial maidens ride the wind down from the sky.A speckled bamboo branch holds a thousand tears, nigh;Ten thousand rosy clouds form a hundred layers high.
— Mao Zedong, July 1930 In Sixth Moon, heavenly troops march to crush the rotten and vile,With ten-thousand-foot long ropes to bind the giant Peng bird the while.Beyond the Gan River, a red corner glows far and wide;Our flanking force leans on General Huang Gonglue’s might and pride.
