At the corner of Lee Garden Road

你從利園山道那邊轉出來

your wheelchair slips between potted plants,

把輪椅熟練地退至花槽一隅

afternoon’s hours suspended

然後像你微微抽搐的面容

with your cheek’s faint twitch.

在午後的時光中，停下來

Leaves snag a thready wind

風也停在輪椅前的綠色中

as your slow craft weaves

一絲懸掛，那些垂垂以草

grasshoppers from grassblades,

織為蜢的手藝，在大廈和人

as these shadows braid

不斷交織又拆解的陰影中

buildings and people.

看著你，你從不看著人

Watched, you don’t watch others,

自顧自用噴壺向蜢群灑水

your sure hands spritzing bunched hoppers.

草葉的脊骨屈折再挺拔

How the spiny blade, bent once,

探出去的化為顫顫的觸鬚

springs as a trembling antenna.

有小孩剛停步伸出手去

When the boy stops, hand held out,

又被母親急步趕來硬生生

and his mother drags him on,

拖走，你的面容沒有一絲變化

you’re unperturbed, your gaze grass-green,

草綠的眼神停在不息身影中

cool in the restless shade.
