走得太快的人
走得太快的人
有时会走到自己前面去
他的脸庞会模糊
速度给它掺进了
幻觉和未来的颜色
同样，走得太慢的人
有时会掉到自己身后
他不过是自己的阴影
有裂缝的过去
甚至，是自己一直
试图偷偷扔掉的垃圾
坐在树下的人
也不一定刚好是他自己
有时他坐在自己的左边
有时坐在自己的右边
幸好总的来说
他都坐在自己的附近

He Who Walks Too Fast
Whoever walks too fast
May sometimes walk past himself
His face may be blurred
As speed permeates it
With the colors of illusion and future
Likewise, whoever walks too slow
May sometimes lag behind himself
He will become his own shadow
A fissured past
Even what he has always wanted in secret
To dump, some kind of waste
The one who is sitting under a tree
May not be the very himself
Sometimes he sits to his right
Sometimes he sits to his left
Fortunately, for most of the time
He sits quite close to himself

良宵引
你读到爱时，爱已经不在
你读到春天，我已落叶纷飞
一个人的阅读，和另一个人的书写
有时隔着一杯茶，有时，隔着生死
我喜欢删节后的自我，很多人爱着，我剪下的枝条
直到，奇迹出现了，你用阅读追上了我
你读到一粒沙的沉默
而我，置身于它里面的惊涛骇浪中

Ode to a Good Night
In reading, when you come to love, love is already
gone
When you come to spring, I am full of
fallen leaves
Between what one reads and what another has
written
Sometimes stands a cup of tea, and sometimes,
life and death
I like myself abridged, as many will love
the twigs trimmed off
And then a miracle appears when you catch
me through reading
You will read of the silence in a grain of
sand
While I find myself in its violent waves

给
我摸索着你描述的整个白天
所有可爱的事物
草丛、水池，嬉戏的孩子们
喧哗的风，眼睛里的阴影
以及一本摊开的书上
坐着的灵魂
我没有告诉你
我的手指上迅速扎满了小刺

To—
I’ve been groping for what you have
described—
the day from dawn to dusk and all the
lovely things
such as bushes, ponds, children in a game,
the noisy wind, the shadows in eyes
and an open book
with a soul sitting on it
But I have held from you
Fine thorns have so quickly grown on my
fingers
