THE CROSS OF HISTORY佩吉·里德, 格雷厄姆·W·里德 译

歷史的十字架史春波 译


I dissolved in the crystals of undiscovered stones,
我是未被挖掘的石頭裏
I live among the cities, invisible
消融的水晶,
as the air between slices of bread.
我在城市之間生活,隱形
I’m contained in the rust
如同兩片麵包間的空氣。
on the edges of the anchors.
我包藏於鐵錨邊沿
In the whirlwind I am a child
的鏽斑。
beginning to believe in living gods.
在旋風中央
I’m the equivalent of the migrant birds
我是一個孩子
that are always returning, without departing.
開始信仰活著的神。
I want to exist among the continuous verbs,
我是候鳥的對等物,
in the roots that sleep
牠們不停歸返,但從未離開。
among the foundations of the abandoned houses.
我想活在動詞的進行時中,
In death I want to be
與地下根莖一同沉睡
a soldier of undiscovered innocence,
在無人問津的房子底下。
crucified by history
死後,我想成為一名士兵
on a glass cross through which
帶著尚未察覺的天真
in the distance flowers can be seen.
被歷史釘在
玻璃十字架上,透過它
可以看見遠方盛開的花。
