從早上開始

All morning

全城的快餐店裏人們都嘟嚷著

from each corner of the city

梵高

people in cafés

和他那一盤盤

begin to mumble

煎蛋

of van Gogh

這是很自然的大家盯著

and his platters of omelets

端放眼前一碟碟

It’s natural everyone stares

向日葵

at the dish set before him

都屏息靜待

one sunflower

它們旋轉

quietly awaiting

如果有那麼一架影印機

rotation

（像電視廣告所說）

if only in a photocopier

問題是

與藝術

How to lock its color, its flavor,

如何將色香味凝定

又連同畫框

端回家裏

No surprise how we finally

所以不奇怪我們

deliver the ham

最後以傳統的手法

to our mouths

將一塊塊火腿

as always

送進嘴裏

bite after bite

又將時值三億元

then shut away

一朵朵向日葵

the sunflower blooming

永久收藏

像一個天才

like the ecstasy of one genius

發現另一個天才時的狂喜

dismayed to meet

與沮喪

another
