〈活來死去〉

---- 給佛山車禍的小女孩

 

麵包車前輪重重輾過

麵包車後輪重重輾過

卡車前後輪重重輾過

她都還輕輕活著

 

視而不見的眼輕輕掠過

冷漠的心輕輕飄過

風言風語輕輕拂過

她才重重死去

 

LIVING AND DYING

         -- for a little girl in Foshan, Guangdong, China

 

heavily the front wheels of a van ran over her

heavily the rear wheels of the van ran over her

heavily the front and rear wheels of a truck ran over her

lightly she kept herself alive

 

lightly eyes of passers-by glanced over her

lightly indifferent hearts brushed by her

lightly gossips swept around her

heavily she let herself die
