在明尼苏达州的松树岛,躺在威廉·达菲农场的吊床上
(詹姆斯·赖特/作,张文武/译)
抬头望去,我看见那只古铜色的蝴蝶,
睡在黑色的树干上,
绿阴中,它像一枚树叶一样飘动着。
空屋后面的山谷中,
牛铃不断回响
消失在黄昏的远方。
我的右边,
两棵松树之间的田野阳光明媚,
马儿们去年留下的粪便
闪烁着,成了金色的石头。
我斜躺着,而暮色渐浓,黑夜上演了。
一只雏鹰在空中飘浮,寻找着自己的家。
我浪费了我的生命。
Lying In A Hammock At William Duffy's Farm In Pine Island, Minnesota
by James Wright
Over my head, I see the bronze
butterfly,
Asleep on the black trunk,
blowing like a leaf in green shadow.
Down the ravine behind the empty house,
The cowbells follow one another
Into the distances of the afternoon.
To my right,
In a field of sunlight between two pines,
The droppings of last year's horses
Blaze up into golden stones.
I lean back, as the evening darkens and comes on.
A chicken hawk floats over, looking for home.
I have wasted my life.
Asleep on the black trunk,
blowing like a leaf in green shadow.
Down the ravine behind the empty house,
The cowbells follow one another
Into the distances of the afternoon.
To my right,
In a field of sunlight between two pines,
The droppings of last year's horses
Blaze up into golden stones.
I lean back, as the evening darkens and comes on.
A chicken hawk floats over, looking for home.
I have wasted my life.
