不要和我谈论残忍

don’t talk to me about cruelty

或我能力范围以内的事情。

or what i am capable of.

当初我想要蟑螂死的时候我就是要他们死，

when i wanted the roaches dead i wanted them dead

我把他们全部杀光。我拿了一把扫帚闯进他们的国度，

and i killed them. i took a broom to their country

挥打、斜击，不打招呼，

and smashed and sliced without warning

一刻不停。全程面带笑容。

without stopping and i smiled all the time i was doing it.

这是蟑螂的浩劫，尸首，

it was a holocaust of roaches, bodies,

尸首异处，满地红色。

parts of bodies, red all over the ground.

我没问他们叫什么名字。

i didn’t ask their names.

他们没有值得知道的名字。

they had no names worth knowing.

如今每走进一个屋子我都会留心自己。

now i watch myself whenever i enter a room.

我永远不知道我可能会做什么。

i never know what i might do.
