邮件找到我张若轩 译

The Email Finds MeLisa Muradyan


在我找到自己之前,
before I find myself,
独自在派对上
alone at the party
独自在杂货店里
alone at the grocery store
独自在餐厅桌前
alone at the restaurant table
一人一席,又像是还有个人
party of one party of someone
在家里等我,但
waiting for me at home but
那个人是邮件
that someone is the email
它找到我时,我刚洗完澡,一丝不挂
finding me naked after a shower
不是那种性感的
and not in that sexy way you
你可能在我淋浴后找到我的方式
might find me after a shower
而是那种毫不性感的方式
in that not sexy way
我的身体还太湿
where my body is still too wet
穿不上衣服,我必须
for my clothes and I must
和物理定律搏斗,把自己塞进去
fight physics to encase myself
像一根香肠挤进运动服里
like a sausage into a sweat suit
它会裹住我一会儿
that will hold me for a moment
但不像邮件那样
but not the way the email does
它找到我时,我甚至更加
when it finds me even more
破碎,站在镜子前
broken in front of a mirror
做着一些会招来所有人
doing things that will bring judgement
评判的事,当然
from everyone but of course
邮件不会,它只想
not the email, who wants only
找到在一片森林里瑟瑟发抖的我
to find me shivering in a forest
俯身蹲在一具
crouching over the body
刚刚被斩首的爱人的尸体旁
of a recently decapitated lover
邮件想让我知道
the email wants me to know
一切都会好起来,会
it will be alright, that it will be
不只是好起来
more than alright
终有一天,我会
that eventually I will
不再逃下去,会把
stop running and tell
邮件一直想知道的一切
the email all that it wanted
都告诉它,是的,
to know that yes,
我很好,是的
I am well and yes
如我上一封邮件所述
per my last email
我还在呼吸。
I am still breathing.
