哀悼总统

看到电视上

热潮滚滚

到处是对刚逝去的布希总统的深切哀悼

比他在竞选大会上

厚脸皮扮小丑所掀起的掌声

还要来得响亮动听

他想

要是死的是他（大写的他）自己

多好

THE MOURNING OF A PRESIDENT

seeing the TV screen

full of mourning sounds

of President H.W. Bush

much louder and moving

than what he could have aroused

in his campaign rallies

he thought

how wonderful it would be

if HE himself

was the one

who died

〈雾晨〉

朦胧的天空

朦胧的大地

朦胧的眼睛

朦胧的心境

一首逐渐成形

美好的

朦胧诗

却被电视上

一个黑白分明

红蓝分明

或

蓝绿分明

摇旗呐喊相互对骂的

镜头

撕成

片

片

A FOGGY MORNING

misty sky

misty earth

misty eyes

misty mind

all help form a charming

misty poem

suddenly

a scene on the TV screen

of yelling cursing crowds

with a clear dividing line

of

black       and       white

 red       and       blue

tore the poem

into

pi  e  c      es

喷漆

或许

该有一种喷漆

把各色人种

白种人

黑种人

黄种人

棕种人

都喷成不可分辩

无从歧视的

中色或无色的

同种人

然後喷上一层

渗透的明胶

让每个人的内心

神也好

鬼也罢

都一目了然

SPRAY PAINT

maybe

we should have 

spray paint

to make all skins

white

black

yellow

brown

neutral or colorless

so nobody can distinguish

or discriminate

then spray on top 

a penetrating

transparent layer

to reveal inner souls

however divine

or hellish
