First Kiss
初吻
Her mouth fell into my mouth like a summer snow, like a 5th season, like a fresh Eden,
她的唇落入我的嘴，像夏日之雪，像第五个季节， 像最初的伊甸园，
like Eden when Eve made God whimper with the liquid tilt of her hips—
像在伊甸园中，夏娃曼妙的翘臀，使上帝低声呜咽——
her kiss hurt like that— I mean, it was as if she'd mixed the sweat of an angel with the taste of a tangerine.
她的吻是那般伤人——我是说，就像融合了天使的汗水与柑橘的甘甜。
I swear.
我发誓
My mouth had been a helmet forever greased with secrets, my mouth a dead-end street a little bit lit by teeth—
以秘密滋润，我的嘴是一条死胡同， 一点点被唇齿点燃——
my heart, a clam slammed shut at the bottom of a dark, but her mouth pulled up like a baby-blue Cadillac packed with canaries driven by a toucan—
我的心就如蛤蜊， 在黑暗底处砰然紧闭，但她的唇如一辆浅蓝色的凯迪拉克， 突然停下，由翠鸟驱车，载着金丝雀——
I swear those lips said bright wings when we kissed, wild and precise—as if she were teaching a seahorse to speak— her mouth so careful,
我发誓，那嘴唇在我们拥吻时，述说着斑斓的翅膀，狂野而准确—— 好似她在教海马说话——她的唇齿小心翼翼，
chumming the first vowel from my throat until my brain was a piano banged loud, hammered like that— it was like,
啜吮着我口中那第一声元音，直到我的大脑混沌若钢琴般锵然激昂，就像，
I swear her tongue was Saturn's 7th moon— hot like that, hot and cold and circling,
我发誓她的舌就是土星的第七颗月亮——如此炽热，炽热， 冰冷，旋转，
circling, turning me into a glad planet— sun on one side, night pouring her slow hand over the other: one fire flying the kite of another.
舞动，将我也变成一颗快乐的星球——一边阳光明媚， 夜晚将徐缓之手流淌于另一侧：一簇火放飞另一簇火的风筝。
Her kiss, I swear—if the Great Mother rushed open the moon like a gift and you were there to feel your shadow finally unhooked from your wrist.
她的吻，相信我——若自然之母急切地拉开月亮之帘，就像迫切地打开礼物一样，而你的暗影终于放开了擒住你的手腕。
That'd be it, but even sweeter— like a riot of peg-legged priests on pogo-sticks, up and up, this way and this, not falling but on and on like that,
或许如此， 但更加甜蜜——正如一群装着义肢的传教士 踩着娃娃跳杆，一直往上，这样那样，却永不坠下， 一路往前，像这样，
badly behaved but holy—I swear!
虽然行为不端，但是神圣无比，
That kiss: both lips utterly committed to the world like a Peace Corps, like a free store, forever and always a new city—no locks, no walls,
我发誓！那吻，完全投入的双唇像是和平组织的使者投身于这世界，像是免费的商店，永远，永远在探索一座新城——没有枷锁和高墙束缚，
just doors—like that, I swear, like that.
只有敞开的大门——就像这样，我发誓。
