19个小学生及两位老师

-- 德州小学枪击血案，2022.5.24



21条活生生的生命

就这样在几秒钟内倒下

消逝



留下了一个

无底的黑洞

在空荡荡的课桌与教室间

在他们家人悲恸的心中

在人类悲悯关切的心中

以及那些似人非人无动於衷的心中


不断扩展



19 STUDENTS AND TWO TEACHERS

--Texas elementary school shooting, 2022.5.24





21 living lives

fall in a flash

and vanish



leaving behind

a black hole

to contain

the empty seats and classrooms

the mourning hearts

of their families and friends

the sympathetic hearts

of human beings

and the empty hearts

of the inhuman beings




小黄花





院子裡的這些小黃花

在微風中飄搖

不是為了引人注目

或討好

要你去點讃

更不是要你拿起剪刀

去拿它們裝飾

客廳裡的花瓶





明亮的陽光下

它們舞蹈

乃情不自禁

生命滔滔的喜悅

知道

短短的幾天

便是永恆




THE LITTLE YELLOW FLOWERS



waving in the breeze

the little yellow flowers in the yard

are not trying to draw your attention

or ask for your compliments

least of all they want you to pick up the scissors

cut them down

and decorate the vase in your living room



in the bright sun

they dance

for they can't contain

the surging joy of life

knowing well

a few days

is eternity



主角



他猛跑出门

一跃上了马鞍

然後穿过原野

向着又红又圆的夕阳

笃笃奔驰过去



西部片里的

最後一幕

夜夜

在他梦中

排演



好让他清晨醒来

发现自己

仍是主角



THE LEADING ROLE



He runs to the door

vaults into the saddle

and gallops across the prairie

toward the burning sunset



the last scene

of a western movie

is rehearsed every night

over and over

in his dream



just to reassure himself

that he still plays the leading role

when he awakens

in the morning
