上上禮拜簡直是江蕙週。【戲劇與劇場】課，學生討論 Everyman, 用了江蕙的〈家後〉當作例子。全班除了我和那三位交換生，大家彷彿都同意。

到了星期五，【英美女詩人作品選】朗誦分享時刻，有個學生讀了 Emily Dickinson 的 "I cannot live with you" 又提到江蕙的〈家後〉，說她讀這首詩有一樣的流淚衝動。

後來又有第三個人提到〈家後〉。

接下來還有〈舞台人生〉.....

這麼多人會聽唱台語歌呀？嗯！很省腦力哦！(會不會只是因為垃圾模仿秀看太多的關係?)

話說呀.....更早的去年....

那一個號稱非常不感性的林小明不知道哪一根筋不對，說他一邊開車一邊聽〈家後〉，想到「YV 這二十年的辛苦」掉了一路的眼淚。我還問他那是什麼歌詞，知道之後幾乎笑斷大牙。我哪有那麼慘！？(很多不認識我的學生說我在路上看起來就是一副受虐婦女的典型，沒想到進教室之後看到的是一個搞笑的傢伙！)

可是我每次ㄧ轉身就又忘了查歌詞這件事。剛剛終於想到要 YouTube 一下。是這樣呀!我好像聽過了呀!

好！小朋友的聯想很好，雖然不同方向，不是"I cannot live WITHOUT you," 也算是懂詩的方法。
