pebbles of life

in different colours
and different shapes
they shine
and they sparkle
performing a Broadway musical of their own
on this pitch black beach

the small ones are like neon pebbles of sand
the large ones are like shiny jaded pearls
in assorted colours

Although a grand extravaganza
when put togother
each of them on its own
tells enough of a monologue that can melt your heart

it is either that Blue Tooth is an ancient technology
from a lost civilization
or that each pebble is a saint or a martyr
that requires no electricity but the
sacrifice of its own life
just to burst and shine for that split second

Or, is it time, distance, speed, space and
possibly our lack of focus that bestowed upon us
this pitiful arrogance
and shameful pride
that allowed us to be ignorant
to each waste of this limited supply
of what we can call
pebbles of life

生命的细沙

不同的颜色
不同的形状
他们发亮闪耀着
演出一出属于他们自己的Broadway音乐剧
在这个黑漆的海滩上

小颗的像霓虹灯的细沙
大颗的像不同颜色 晶莹剔透的珍珠

虽然他们放在一起是一个华丽的演出
但是其实
他们每一个
都可以说出一段可以融化你的心的独白

如果不是蓝芽是一个古老的科技
从一个失落的民族流传至今
就是每一颗细砂
都是个圣人或烈士
不需要电力
而是牺牲自己的生命
只为了那一瞬间的发光

或着
其实是时间 距离 速度 空间
或我们自己的不专注
注定了我们 惭愧的傲慢
还有 丢脸的自满
导致我们可以不去理会
浪费着每一颗有限来源的
生命的细沙
