一
These lapped petals
repeat the scent
複沓的花瓣
of morning, of earth, dew’s
複沓的香
milk-white fog
清晨的泥土的乳白的霧的
露的
Scarab’s claws,
spittle of blue triangle butterfly
金龜子腳趾的
(as if from your body),
青帶鳳蝶唾液的以及
sweet liquors distilled of night,
(像是你身體的)
mattress, pillow
醞釀著甜酒的夜的褥枕的
A fragrance creeps
香
from the bed’s half-dreamt cliff
從半夢的床崖靠近
hesitant
貓一樣輕
light as a cat
拿捏不定
Echoing memory, rich
複沓的記憶,飽滿
and weighty (ah your palm)
厚實的(啊是你的手掌)
opening toward me
向我
張開
2.
This eggshell porcelain
二
this shallow wineware
how can it hold the repeating fugue
這薄胎瓷
about to overbrim
這淺酌的酒器
如何盛裝複沓得就要
I await you
溢出的白色賦格
(I’ll stay if I say so)
Can you hear? How
你會來嗎?
uncertain, soon to shatter
(如果說我在這我正在這)
你會聽見嗎?多麼
3.
不確定,像是要碎了
Like bunched clouds soon
to tear apart,
三
snow on the treetop
soon to melt
像是束攏的雲就要
失散
the sound dims
樹梢的殘雪
but still echoes,
就要融化
that color (oh how it resembles white silk’s
fear of defilement)
那音質分明低弱了
依然迴盪
It’s surely time to close
那顏色(唉如何一種素絹
the moon halo’s twenty-one petals,
的潔癖)
its twenty-one layers
lingering
分明該崩解了
月暈的二十一重花瓣
Besieged city, I can’t after all
終是
step from your open web,
二十一重不捨
its pale labyrinth
its turns
的圍城,我終是走不出
你張開的
網,複沓的
乳白迷宮
