我也说说莲

近朱者不赤  近墨者不黑
你就是那绝世独立的一支莲
你就是那隐喻千年的一首诗

不作水草 在淤泥中化为腐朽
不学向日葵
那旱地里的势利眼
总转动着谄媚的笑靥
也无论狂风 也无论骤雨
你不改自己的初衷

人说你孤标傲世 卓尔不群
其实你
虚怀若谷 擎一腔
空灵的神性
心有正气 清香撒播天地

初出道 小荷才露尖尖角
及长成  如曼妙少女
清水出芙蓉 天然去雕饰
纯情缕缕  款款禅意
质本洁来还洁去
千年的佛，读你就是读诗
千年的诗，参你就是参佛

I Also Talk About Lotus

One near the red is not red, one near the black is not black
You are the unique and independent lotus
You are a poem of a thousand years in metaphor

You do not do water grass turning into decay in the mud
You do not learn sunflower
The snobbish one in the dry land
Who always turns a sweet smile
No matter the wind and no matter the shower
You don’t change your original intention

People say that you are so proud and you are proud of the world
Actually you
Are very modest, and you have
Ethereal divinity
There is righteous in heart and the fragrance spreads to the world

At the beginning of the road, the little lotus begins to show its sharp tip
And grow up like a beautiful girl
Clear water gives rise to lotus, natural without so much embellishment
Pure and leisure in buddhist mood
For pure you came and for pure shall go
The Buddha of the Millennium, reading you is reading poetry
The poem of the millennium, worshipping you is worshipping the buddha

过洞庭湖

八百里洞庭
湖水燃烧
铺满天际的火烧云
沸腾而宁谧
宛如气势恢宏的安塞腰鼓队
红衣女舞上去
热血男走下来

Passing Through Dongting Lake

Eight hundred miles of Dongting Lake
Lake water is burning
The Fire Clouds covering the sky
Boiling and peaceful
Like the magnificent Ansai Waist Drum Team
The female in red is dancing to going up
The hot blooded man is walking down

哀悼四台验钞机

一想到那四台烧坏的验钞机
我就想象着它们做鬼也风流的浪漫
以及那一瞬重于泰山的灿烂
能有幸在一幢金碧辉煌的豪宅中
跟一亿元现钞交欢
尤其是还极有可能拷进U盘 制成影像
写进教科书
五千年以后，人们讲起我国的古文化
讲起U盘里面那些血淋淋的梦
讲起勤劳致富
讲起那些谎点儿小盐[1]也只能勉强维持生计的
草民们
讲起魏副司长家藏养着数以亿计的赵飞燕[2]
在天堂  你们安息于曾经的辉煌？

注[1]此处意思是：撒点儿小谎
注 [2 ]  此处用飞燕身轻掌上可舞典故形容魏鹏远家藏着的大量的 现钞,这些现钞就像赵飞燕一样红颜祸水

Mourning Four Money Detectors

Very time when I thought of the four money detectors burned out
I just imagine they are so romantic even as a ghost
And the splendor moment heavy as Taishan
Is fortunate to be in a magnificent mansion
And making sex with 100 million yuan cash
In particular, it is very likely to be copied into a USB Flash Drive and made into a video
And write into a textbook
Five thousand years later, when people talk about our ancient culture
Talk about those bloody dreams in the USB Flash Drive
Talk about hard working and getting rich
Talk about those common herd who make little lies [1] can only barely
Make living. Talk about hundreds of millions of Zhao Feiyan who have been hidden in the house of Deputy Secretary Wei [2]
In heaven, do you rest in your past glory

Note [1] This means: a little lie
Note [2] Here, Feiyan’s body can be used to describe a large number of cash notes hidden in Wei’s house. These cash notes are just as troubles as Zhao Feiyan

白内障

梦做老了的
才会白内障

它迫使
你的呼吸你的心跳你的禅念
很近很近的
贴过去
才能看得清，认得出
一些浑浊的文字
一些重叠的光影
一些血腥的符号

它正好反衬 一个人
目光明澈时的
蓝天啊 白云啊
山高啊 海阔啊

那些瞟一眼就捕捉到的清晰  单纯
恰恰是他历经漫长黑夜
梦断蓝桥之后的
一个伏笔

Cataract

People who do dreams in old ages
Can get cataract

It forces
Your breath, your heartbeat and your meditation
Very very close
When you close to it
You can just see clearly and recognize
Some muddy text
Some overlapping light and shadow
And some bloody symbols

It just stands alone
A clear-eyed person
Blue sky oh, white clouds oh
High mountains oh and wide seas oh

The clarity and simplicity captured at a glance
Are exact a foreshadowing
After he has gone through long dark night
And has dreams broken on blue bridge

风是不撒谎的

一

风是不撒谎的
风说来就来
那天从地铁站出来
天空冷雨淅沥
我刚撑开伞
一阵风扑过来
伞骨翻折
伞柄弯曲变形
天堂伞 美丽的天蓝色的天堂伞
我追了几米远才追回来

二

恐惧风我甚于恐惧雨雪  闪电
它们呼啸像山坳里凄厉的狼嚎
它们游弋像房梁上滑落到你脚下
又倏忽游走的蛇
它们让人猝不及防
有时候没有风，骨子里凉飕飕的
有时候风很狂，浑身汗流浃背

三

我也有渴望一阵风的时候
夏天，闷热干燥的夏天
透不过气来的午后
渴望风有如贝多芬《月光曲》一样的盛宴
从田野  民居  都市的广场
降临。
有时候，我甚至盼望握住一场风
而风   满口谎言的风
迟迟不来

四

你看那些风雨相亲的词语
首先映入眼帘的风调雨顺  风生水起
风雨交加以及
山雨欲来风满楼
它们有如孪生姐妹
难兄难弟 它们总是
风雨同舟
虽然经常也会有风不调雨不顺
只刮风不下雨的时候

五

风将一片树叶卷到空中
再打着漩涡飞回来的时候
偶尔会有行人驻足观赏
他们听到那片树叶满身是血的吟诵
树欲静而风不止

The Wind Does Not Lie

One

The wind does not lie
The wind wants to come and it will come
That day when I came out of the subway
Cold rain showers in the sky
When I just opened the umbrella
A gust of wind came towards to me
The umbrella ribs turnovered
The umbrella handle bent and deformed
Paradise Umbrella beautiful and blue sky Paradise Umbrella
After I chased it a few meters, I held it back

Two

I fear of wind and I even fear of rain, snow and lightning
They roar like a wolf in a mountain pass
Like the roam slipping from the beam of a house under your feet
And also like the wandering snakes
They make you unpredictable
Sometimes there is no wind, but my bones are cold
Sometimes the wind is wild, but I am so sweaty

Three

Some times I also long for a gust of wind
In Summer, in sultry and dry summer
In the breathless afternoon
I long for the wind coming
From the fields, folk houses, and urban squares
As a feast of Beethoven’s Moonlight
Sometimes I even look forward to holding a wind
But the wind is full of lies
It is slow to come

Four

You look at those words close in storms
The first thing that catches the eyes in the smooth and rainy weather
Ups and downs
And rain coming from the wind
They are like twin sisters
And brothers in hard times
Who are always in the same boat in wind and rain
Although there are often irregular winds and irregular rain
Only there is windy but not raining

Five

The wind rolled a leaf into the air
When it flyed back in a swirl
Occasionally there were some pedestrians stop to watch
They heard the leaf chanting with blood
The tree wanted to be quiet but the wind was not still

这个寂静的春天

逸仙路高架桥  鳞片刺眼
车流滑过
水面浮着的鱼的眼睛
斜阳  探身窗来  时光陷入
慵懒的睡眠
轻轨列车 咣当咣当
这个胸怀理想的革命家
执拗地奔跑在自己的梦幻里

谁家女人的哭号 倚门而泣
郁积已久的伤心事
诉说给高楼和高楼外的旷漠倾听？

鲜奶恋  普甜系  未择兮
偶尔泛起的微微涟漪
有条不紊
五月将要过去 没有一声鸟鸣

                  2016年5月23日于虹口
                  2019年4月9日改

This Silent Spring

Scales are dazzling on Yixian Road Viaduct
Traffic flowing by
Eyes of fish floating on the water
Setting sun leaning into the window
And the time is in lazy sleeping
Light Rail Train, crashbang, crashbang
This ideal revolutionary
Runs stubbornly in his dreams

Whose woman’s crying, leaning against the door
Her long sorrowful sadness
Telling to the high-rise buildings and the desert listening outside of the high-rise buildings

Fresh milk love or sweet groups unselected
Occasionally make slight ripples
Methodically
May is about to pass without a song of birds

四化路麻将室门前

四化路和湖乡路交叉路口的麻将室前
扶贫办工作人员拿着名单高喊：胡八万  胡八万
谁是胡八万？
声音穿过空旷的街道
麻将声在牌桌上麻木地翻滚
胡八万扭过头来  眨了眨眼
笑容像一段从灶膛里扒出来的灰木头
填表  签字  按手印
感叹一声：今天的手气真好啊

In Front Of Sihua Road Mahjong Room

In front of Mahjong Room at the intersection of Sihua Road and Huxiang Road
The staff of the Poverty Alleviation Office shouted: Hu Bawan, Hu Bawan
Who is Hu Bawan
The sound through the empty street
The sound of mahjong tumbling numbly at the poker table
Hu Bawan turned his head and blinked
His smile is like a piece of gray wood picked out from the stove
He filled in the form, signatured and fingerprinted
And sighed: I’m so lucky today

愧于此生

我买彩票
总是中末等奖的那一个
我跟别人一起走路  爬山
总是落在最后面的那一个
称体重 电子称读数说
我是骨头最多 肉最少 分量最轻的那一个
我跟朋友干仗
总是打的赢不敢打 打不赢总挨打的那一个
我当官
职务是低于弼马温十万八千里的那一个
佛说：前世的因，今世的果

我以毕生的经历践行了
往矣！吾将曳尾于途中

I Am Ashamed Of This Life

I buy the lottery tickets
But I am the one who always wins the last prize
I walk with others and climb montains with others
But I am always the one who arrives at the top of montains at last
When I weight me, the electronic weighing scale read the numbers and says
I’m the one with the most bones, the least meat and the lightest weight
When I fight with friends
I’m always the one can win but dares not to fight, and the one does not win and always is hit
When I am to be an official
The position is the one that is 108 thousand miles below than the Protector of the Horses
Buddha said: Causes of previous lives are just the results of this life

I have practiced it through my life
Go ahead! I will freely creep in muddy water as the turtle

乙未中秋,写给母亲

妈妈：
中秋之夜 千里之外
儿邀您一起赏月

再不能像小时候
搬一张竹床 来到禾场
我们躺在皎洁的月光下
您轻摇蒲扇 一边给我赶走蚊子
一边讲那古老的故事
那时的月饼,您把冰糖给我
您把花生仁给我
您吃我吃剩的
母亲  天上的月亮是圆的
您生活的希望是甜的

如今  您老了
儿却在千里之外
儿多想陪您月光下徜徉,
把幸福给您
把欢乐给您
让您重新找回开启我生命的摸样
那香酥的月饼
银盘样的月光
盛满您的唠叨
您的家常

母亲,原谅儿无以回报
今夜  千里之外
我手中的月饼是甜的
头顶的月亮是咸的
炫目的光影下,儿是魔都铁轨里一颗
挣扎的砂砾
母亲,千里之外
儿遥祝您安康,

In Mid-Autumn Festival Of 2015, I Wrete To My Mother

Mom:
In the Mid-Autumn Night and thousands of miles away
I invite you to enjoy the moon together

We could’t be like when I was a kid anymore
Moved a bamboo bed to the grass field
And lied in the bright moonlight
You shaked the cattail leaves fan, and drived me away the mosquitoes
While you were telling that ancient story
The moon cake at that time, you gave me rock sugar
Give me the peanut kernels
You ate my leftovers
Mother, the moon in the sky is round
The hope of your life is sweet

Now, you grow old
But your son is in a thousand miles away
Your son, how I want to accompany you wandering in the moonlight
Give you happiness
Give you joy
Let you regain the look that opened my life
That fragrant and crispy moon cake
Silver plate like moonlight
Full of your chatter
And your daily things

Mother, please forgive your son nothing to return to you
Tonight in thousands of miles away
The moon cake in my hand is sweet
The moon above me is salty
In the dazzling light and shadow, your son is a struggling grit
In the rails of the magic capital
Mother, in thousands of miles away
Your son wishes you in good health

September 25, 2015

母亲坐在门口等她的儿子

母亲坐在门口等她的儿子
八十岁的母亲 满头白发的母亲
思念刻满皱纹
注视路口
她的眼睛不放过
每一辆跑过的汽车.电瓶车.麻木
每一个走过的人
她不放过任何声音

等她的儿子
等她的年近花甲的儿子
拖着沉疴漂在江南魔都的儿子
她的希望 失望 幸福 安慰

西斜的日头在她的盼望中微微的一丝颤抖
她听到轻轻的一声叫唤；妈妈
她的眼睛里顿时漾满涟漪

                  2015年8月10日凌晨

Sitting At The Door The Mother Is Waiting For Her Son

Sitting at the door the mother is waiting for her son
Eighty-year-old mother, my mother in white hair
Missing is engraved with her wrinkles
Looking at the intersection
Keeps her eyes on
Every passing car, battery car and numbness
Everyone who walks by
She doesn’t let go of any voice

Waiting for her son
Waiting for her son who will be close on sixty years of age
Waiting for her son with severe and lingering illness floating in the southern magic capital
Her hope, disappointment, happiness and comfort

The sun setting towards the west trembled slightly in her hope
She heard a soft cry; Mom
Ripples in her eyes suddenly

                  Early morning, August 10, 2015
