Mountain, mountain, mountain,
山,山,山,
marking time. Each

nameless, wall beyond wall, wavering
没有名字,墙外的墙,摇动着,
redefinition of

horizon.
地平线。
And through the months. The arrivals
如此数月。傍晚抵达的城市
at dusk in towns one must leave at daybreak
破晓时就必须离去
—were they
——它们
taken to heart, to be seen
被留在心间了吗,反复地
always again,
重现?
or let go, those faces,
抑或只是掠过,那些脸孔,
a door half-open, moss
那半掩的门,
by matchlight on an inscribed stone?
还有石刻上被火柴照亮的苔痕?
And by day
而白天,
through the hours that
在嗡鸣着环绕我们的
rustle about one dryly,
枯涩时辰里,
tall grass of the savannah
热带草原上的高高青草
up to the eyes.
满溢眼底。
No alternative to the
独自一人的道路,
one-man path.
并无分岔可言。
