《第一次梦见你》
第一次梦见你，
在你去世后：
昨夜我做梦，你正在自杀
快速坐到房间窗台上
然后——跳！——你整个身体飞到半空
除了手不知怎么地 （反手？） 抓着
窗台。 而我试图
抓住你，拽着救你——而且成功了 （不像现实生活中
重力
令你我坠落）
后来 在你得救后，你坐着也许是站着，在我边上
你在寻求帮助 鼓励
要人对你说一切都会好起来，愿祂
保佑
正如我一次又一次想对你说点什么
而你又那么心甘情愿、一心一意地与我一道
你竟在生死之间，亦生亦死
左闪右烁，在你的形象之外，在我的日常
生活场景之外，在我狼吞虎咽的蛋糕之外，
惊诧于我自己竟如此享受生活 一个只留给我的生活
而你毕竟在啊
饱满
只是灵魂的蒸汽
而我紧紧依偎你 伸出双臂拥抱你
My First Dream about You
My first dream about you
after you passed:
I dreamt last night that you’re trying to commit suicide
swiftly seating yourself on the windowsill
in your room and—hop!—your entire body is in the air
except for your hands that somehow (backward?) hold
onto the sill. And I try
to drag to hoist to save you—and succeed (unlike real life
where gravity
dropped you me)
Later after you’ve been saved and you sit or stand with me
you’re asking for help encouragement
someone to say with you that all will be all right blessed be
He
just as I’ve tried again and again to say with you
and how you joined me willingly faithfully
How you’re alive and dead at the same time
flickering this way and that beyond your image, beyond the scenes
of my everyday life, beyond the cake that I devour,
astonished at myself for enjoying life so much a life left to me alone
And here you are after all
full-
bodied as soul-vapor only
and how I cling to you reaching my arms to enfold you
《当痛化作花》
When Pain Becomes a Flower
当痛苦化为一朵花
当危险的气味
变成精心培育的
水仙花的香气——
我逃了
当花朵变成痛苦
当花根突然
变成暴露的牙齿
当尖锐 炽热的危险气息
从紧握的拳头中
骤然释放——
我走上来
《如是》
人在20时被压抑
怎么相比于人到90时的冲澡
人在21时与女人上床
怎么相比于人到81下床时没有女人
人在16时读诗
怎么相比于人到89时穿鞋
人在39时写诗
怎么相比于人到93时脱衣
人在30时喝醉
怎么相比于人到90时喝水还不洒

怎么相比于人到74时从办公室傻瓜那里拿到通行证
人在26时攀登喜马拉雅山
怎么相比于人到86时爬上一辆巴士
人在55时坐在员工会议上
怎么相比于人到83时坐在马桶上
人在32时听天界的音乐
怎么相比于人到82时听到有人敲门
人在37时在冥想中漂浮
怎么相比于人到97时从浴缸中站起
人在40时坐着写下这些
怎么相比于人到90时躺着阅读这个
然而试图
起来

《隐喻》Metaphors
你从我这里要
（我使用过的）
隐喻，
例如：
“一只巨鸟展开它像大陆一样宽阔的翅膀”。
我说：
华丽的翱翔之鸟
无法俘获我的心
我的心会被俘获
在粒子波的细微骚动的
灌木丛
在灰色的多彩
彩虹中
那透明的黑色里
你从我这里要
烟花
而我 我只想
从伸出嘴唇的
舌头上
抹去
火药的
苦咸味
