臉
他從沒看過媽媽
聽說是很久很久以前的事了
醉酒的男人 荒唐的散彈
媽媽美麗的青春急診 無效
夢裡媽媽總戴著眼罩 抱著他
有一次媽媽說要拿下眼罩
他說不要不要
他知道媽媽很愛他 他知道
新聞:美國奧立岡州廿七歲婦人克莉茜.史泰茲十一年前遭霰彈槍誤擊臉部而毀容,也喪失視力,但她仍勇敢生活下去並嫁人生子,唯一缺憾是只能戴眼罩面對自己的幼兒。如今專家為她精心製作一張「義臉」(prosthetic face),她在動手術戴上後,終於能夠以接近天生的容貌,讓孩子看到媽媽的臉。見中時電子報(2010/07/18)

Face
He has never seen his mother.
It was long long time ago--
A drunken man, and his absurd bullets.
Her beautiful youth was sent to ER,
Certified dead.
A drunken man, and his absurd bullets.
Her beautiful youth was sent to ER,
Certified dead.
His mother has never seen him.
When dreaming, his mother always held him
With a patch on her face.
One day she wanted to take it off.
But he said no, no.
He knew she loved him, he knew.
With a patch on her face.
One day she wanted to take it off.
But he said no, no.
He knew she loved him, he knew.

有點sad的故事,最後一段的描寫很感人。
