露睜眝, 大竖特树, 无米之吹, 本性难移

Picture 1
Chinese: 本性難移
Pinyin: ben xing nan yi
English: Revealing her ferocious nature

Poem:
Chinese:
“露睜（猙）獰”
江自為“奇峰”，
狠天看不中，
尋常隱隱見，
當今露睜（猙）獰！

English:
Jiang compared herself to a “high-rise peak”,
She had been resentful that she was neglected by the highest power
(Her ambition) was faintly seen,
Now she had revealed her ferocious nature.

Notes:
On her face: Empress Lü She says: I am the standard bearer, student, comrade.
This poem is a parody of a poem by Jiang Qing: “There is a high-rise peak hidden in clouds and fog; it is not easily seen but makes its striking appearance only occasionally.” （江上有奇峰，鎖在雲霧中。尋常看不見，偶爾露崢嶸 ）
