沉重的往事

有一种往事很沉重

突然浮现时

时间会一下子停止

假如你那时正在舞蹈

手便僵滞地停在空中

心 忽地沉坠

跌人无底的黑洞

 

你见过一只飞鸟

翅膀蓦然停在天上

然后 竖直地跌落

死在了车轮下

是怎样的沉重

把脆弱的鸟

坠入死亡?

 

幸亏岁月已老

往事正在淡漠

天际也不再那样清晰

记忆 像断了线的风筝

飘来飘去 ……

2009年11月

Sydney Helen Jia

Serious bygone

There is one kind of bygones serious

When it all on a sudden appears,

The regular world in itself would stop it going.

At that moment when you are in dancing

Your hands would stay in air lifeless

And heart drop into a hole bottomless.

 

Have you seen a bird flying high

Suddenly its wings hung on in air

Then falling down straight,

Died under rolling wheels never known,

It was what kind of weight

Could pull a frail bird down,

Given its death?

 

It’s a mercy my years got older

The things past are fading,

The horizons, never the same clear.

Memory is like a kite out of its string,

Flies far, floated in air.

December /2009
