同舟无济
这次有点不同。从布里亚特到佛蒙特,不同
追上了同舟的无济于事。只是疲劳。湖要求
正面放弃背面,要求船底闭上眼睛划破无底。
今天没有。贝加尔湖的平躺要求弗罗斯特的
林地有点不同:背面的桦树属于桦树它曾经
也是桦树。皮肤裂成的白可以记下没有的绿。
慢性。她有一只小小的药盒,帮她闭上眼睛
拖住进化的后腿。只是心动过速。鱼的起伏
要求星球平躺,放弃直立性低血压的猿与瀑。
白。哈达和药片。哈达属于药片它曾经也是
无济于事。只是更白。绕过白令海峡的免疫
系统要求大西洋放弃白得耀眼:银乃至水疱。
The Futility of the Same Boat
This time is a little different. From Buryatia to Vermont, difference
Has overtaken the futility of being in the same boat. Just exhausting. The lake requires
The surface to renounce what lies beyond, requires the hull’s closed eyes to pierce the bottomless depths.
Today is absence. The flat calm of Lake Baikal requires Foster’s
Woodland to be a little different: behind the house the birch tree is a birch tree
and was always
A birch tree. The white of splitting skin records the absence of green.
Slow and patient. She has a small medicine chest, to help her shut her eyes and hold back the retreat of evolution. Just the heart beating too fast. The ripple of fish
Requires the stars to recline, to renounce the vertical low blood pressure of apes and waterfalls.
Whiteness. Blessing scarves and pills. A blessing scarf is a pill and was always
Futile. Just whiter. Bypassing the immune system of the Bering Strait requires the Atlantic Ocean to renounce the blaze of whiteness: silver to the point of blistering.

病例:百合
为你织一潭泳衣,
为你织一身水蛭。
为你织万物前提。
为你:体液百合。
一橙一黄:为你。
既然:一日寻求
另一日替代天堂。
前提的体液允许
偷换百合:为你。
更好,也为更坏。
为你织斜枝两股,
为你织水花一双。
假装接力的万物
为你织纱窗之内:
蕊与瓣为你假装
拆松前提的水蛭。

Case Notes: Lilies
I will weave for you a pool to swim in,
I will weave for you a suit of leeches.
I will weave for you the existence of all living things.
For you: the pure sap of lilies.
One orange, one yellow: for you.
Just as one day pursues the next
To stand in for paradise.
The existence of sap allows
A sly substitution of lilies: for you.
Even better: also for even worse.
I will weave for you two sloping limbs,
I will weave for you a pair of water blooms.
The feigned relay of all living things
Will weave for you the interior of a screen window:
Stamens and petals will pretend for you
To tear apart the existence of leeches.
