今夜會無詩可用
【美】艾德里安娜·裏奇 陳子弘 譯
看見你光腳走着
久久注視
新月的眼瞼
朦朧睡意
而後蔓延,裸露在你的黑髮上
睡着了,依然記得
在別處沒睡着和
睡不着
今晚我
覺得會
無詩可用

TONIGHT NO POETRY WILL SERVE
Adrienne Rich
Saw you walking barefoot
taking a long look
at the new moon’s eyelid
later spread
sleep-fallen, naked in your dark hair
asleep but not oblivious
of the unslept unsleeping
elsewhere
Tonight I think
no poetry
will serve
