1 不

 

会说“不”吗?还会写吗?也会

把“对”给他吧!让寸心知

“是”呢?“是”在哪儿

在“非”的后面,它被改为“不”

 

No

Do you know how to say “no”? Can you still know how to write the word?

Will you give him the word “right”

and let a faithful heart know it?

What about “yes”? Where is it

It is changed into “not” behind the word “wrong”.

 

2 老乡

 

灯火告诉星辰,我们是老乡哩

在清晨六点钟以前的夜路上

路灯喊路,快跟上来呀

夜半摸黑的一颗星,从人梦里消失

山都戴上天蓝的帽子

 

Fellow Townsmen

The lights tell all stars that we are fellow townsmen

On the night road before six o’clock in the morning

The streetlights are shouting at the roads, hurry up and follow up

One star in the dark midnight disappears from human dreams

and then all mountains wear a light blue hat

 

3 鱼尾纹

 

鱼尾纹网过鱼吗?没!只网眼神

嘴角弹跳起来,被一句话网住了

嗓门有些沙哑

老不是自称的,是岁月逼的

白发与鱼尾纹论价值

猫很年少,都有胡子

还思春,也像个老头子

 

Crow’s Feet

Has the crow’s feet net ever caught a fish? No! Only a gaze

The corners of my mouth bounce up, due to being clamped by a sentence

My voice is a bit hoarse

Being old is not self proclaimed, but driven by the time

How to compare the value of gray hair and crow’s feet?

Such as a cat, although it is very young

It also can have beards

and long for spring, or act like an aged person

 

4 比

 

人面与票面比试脸面,白眼像白天

连说比个鬼

一叠书稿与一叠票子掰手劲

不知天高地厚,叹息暗暗夜晚

 

Comparing

Face to face, comparing a man’s face and a paper momey’s face,

A look of contempt is like daytime

They say it is meaningless to do comparison

Just like a stack of manuscripts wrestling with a stack of banknotes

is ignorant of the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth

And just sigh in the dark nigh

[xyz-ihs snippet=”In-article-ads”]

 

5 幻觉

 

叹息与落叶,两个影子

飘在一块玻璃上,被风吹

时日似风雨

光阴两脚跑得快,枯枝上

一行蚂蚁不紧不慢

日渐朦胧,露出难色

 

Hallucination

Sighs and fallen leaves make two shadows

floating on a piece of glass, blown by the wind

Time is like wind and rain ,running fast with both feet.

On withered branches

a row of ants is neither fast nor slow

in gradually hazy, showing signs of reluctance or embarrassment

 

6 偶感

 

人心有一直转动的日月,曰“太极”

阴阳合抱一世生老,名“变异”

日月之“明”统治人心,循环复循环

传承生灭

典范天意

泪能赢得同情,似雨

笑能掠取真知,似天晴

剩下的理性冷静,哭笑不得

 

An Occasional Feel

The human heart has a constantly rotating sun and moon, called “Tai Chi”

Yin and Yang embrace each other for a lifetime, getting old and known as “mutation”

The “brightness” of the sun and moon rules the hearts of people, forming a repeating cycle

carrying on the birth and death

and representing heavenly intention

Tears can win sympathy, like rain

Laughter can take true knowledge, like the sunny sky

The remaining rational and calm, unable to laugh or cry

 

7 梦想

 

人是物质的杰作,精神的财富

宝藏着许多扬弃

人之内外,哪是梦想?哪是远方

哪是兄妹

血肉的建筑材料之内,魂儿

有羊的“咩—咩—咩—”

狼的“嗯—嗯—嗯—”

都很温柔呀

像白昼是黑夜吐出的骨头

人心似梦,月亮光光

 

A Dream

People are material masterpieces and spiritual wealth

having many abandoning behaviors

Inside and outside a man’s body, what is a dream? Where is the distance

which ones are siblings

Within the building materials of flesh and blood, souls have

a sheep’s shout “baa baa baa baa”

and the wolf’s shout “hmm hmm hmm”

They all sound very gentle

just like the daytime is the bone vomited out by night

A man’s heart is like a dream, under the bright and sparking moon

 

8 北海

 

摊开捡来的沙滩,找脚印

碧波涌来一片天蓝

浪滚这么多年了,还记住你,北海

和那时诗友们的泳姿,还属于脑海

之后有眼泪汇成过海水

海涛中的那窈窕,仍有咸味

 

Beihai

Spread out the picked beach and look for footprints

Blue waves surge over

They have been rolling for so many years, still remember you,

My swimming style with my poetry friends in Beihai at that time still remains in my mind

After that, tears come together and form seawater

All graceful figures in the waves still have a salty taste

 

9 修行

 

有出发就有跌倒,远大前程

也有坦途等着车祸

向着青烟袅袅飞,日月那双目光

照人头顶,有时

身影是自己的一堵斜墙

撕回眸飞上天的那些羽翼

是回忆做错的作业纸屑吗

 

Practice

As soon as you set off, you might fall down

A bright future ahead might also have smooth paths or traffic accidents

Flying towards the light blue smoke, the pair of gazes of the sun and moon

shines on people’s heads. Sometimes

your figure is your own sloping wall

tearing the wings that looked back and then flew into the sky

Is it a memory of scraps of the wrong homework?

10 月夜

 

月照今夜,像一兜大白菜

没打农药,我可以证实

之上有星星的虫子

 

Moonlit Night

Tonight moonlight is shinning, like a bag of big Chinese cabbage

that has not been sprayed with pesticides.

I can confirm. Some brilliance of the stars on the cabbage

 

11 日照

 

旭日,是白天享用的果实

移动着给世人品尝,许多望眼似嘴唇

直至夕暮端走,传递给月起

 

Sunshine

The rising sun is people’s fruit during the day

moving , to be tasted by the human, many longing lip-like eyes look at it

until the dusk takes them away, and passes them to the moon

 

12 经历

 

皱纹经过人世,白发问,哪里人氏

从青丝处搬迁而来的

历程回答,撇捺放松一些是八月

微笑有桂花香

绕过的禁区呢?有过来人

在培训思考

2023.10.7

 

Experience

Wrinkles pass through the human world, white hair asks, where are you from.

Moved from black hair.

The answer is from the whole journey, just take it easy and relax. It will reach August,

each smile will have the fragrance of osmanthus flowers

What about the bypassed restricted area ? Someone has come over

and is training his thinking

October 7, 2023

 

13 那时此刻

 

肚子里的那时,以树皮草根充饥

饥寒杀人,饱暖被封口

敬神原是哄鬼

这刻说那时,仿佛已归土

不!还循环着

 

At That Time and This Moment

At that time, because of hunger, I fed my stomach with tree bark and grass roots

Hunger and cold could kill people, having enough food and warmth were impossible

Respecting gods could not really get things done

To talk about that time at this moment, it seems as if all the things had been already returned to the soil

No! Still circulating

 

14 仰俯择意

 

仰看天书,俯听地语

芸芸众生,纷纷世事

万年千年百年十年一年年

天是哪个?地又是谁

试着明鉴大脑中的思路

日旋循规

月转蹈矩

别说窗外、旁观、懒管

管又如何

但看爱情、亲情、友情

已渐次屏蔽……

 

Looking up or Bending down by One’s Will

Looking up at the heavenly book when raising the head and listening to the earthly language when lowering the head

The multitude of living beings, diverse and complex secular affairs

Ten thousand years, a thousand years, a hundred years, ten years, or a year later

What is the sky? What is the earth

Try to understand the thoughts in the mind

The sun spins around its own axis

The revolution of the moon accords to natural rule

Not to mention being outside the window, watching from the sidelines, or being lazy to talk about

What could you do if you care about things

But if looking at love, family, or friendship

They are gradually blocked

15 试问

 

1)

问噫吁兮,高龄几何

答曰:我还是“晚生”,在养活力

问巍巍乎在悬空寺里

神前有一盘红苹果,想尝一口吗

浩瀚回应兮,有一滴泪

在世人眼角,我听见了涛声

 

2)

谁在巍巍乎里住宿过?赫赫然那客房

惶惶然通宵失眠,因为什么

噫吁兮曰:狗怕棍子,棍子似人

妖魔怕金箍棒,棒长17500息

棍打“怕惧”,棒与心魔对峙

悟空输给八戒

唐僧是法理

呜呼哀哉!巍峨乎,噫吁兮

命运里的信息,几人知

 

Try to Ask

1)

Oh, take a sigh , then ask how old are you

Answer: I am still a man born late, nurturing my vitality

Ask::in the suspended towering temple

There is a plate of red apples in front of God,. do you want to taste them

A reply from the vast: a drop of tear

in the corner of the human people’s eyes, I hear the sound of waves

 

2)

Who had stayed in the towering place before? In the beautiful guest room

What is the reason for insomnia all night in a state of panic

Oh it is said, “Dogs are afraid of sticks, sticks act like humans.”

Demons fear the 17-miter-long Golden Hoop Staff

The stick can beat up fear, or confronts the inner demon

Wukong was defeated by Bajie

Tang San-zang means the legalist

Alas! It’s so huge, it is a pity.

Almost no one knows the information in fate,

 

16 二题

 

1)

大脑是人最大的牢房

双眼开窗

还是囚犯

自以为是久了,以为九九归一

孤独一个,弱势一群

 

2)

杯盏吻嘴,是品或是饮

众口合成碗口,天空也可作盘子

红日如水果

每晚一碗星辰的白米饭

人能活在这地球之上

昼夜也是劳动者

 

1)

A brain is the biggest prison for humans

Though you open windows with both eyes

You are still a prisoner

You think you have stayed here for a long that everything will only come back to one thing.

Lonely individuals, become a vulnerable group

 

2)

Cups kiss the mouths, are people tasting or drinking?

People’s mouths can compose a bowl and even the sky can also be used as a plate

The red sun is like a fruit

Having a bowl of star-like white rice every night

People can live on this earth

Day and night are also laborers

 

17 雨后彩虹

 

雨后青山系彩虹的项链

半串青山年轻,半串碧水浪漫

远近渐宽

大自然这般奇异,这夕照,这山川

也许,也“念天地之悠悠”

黄昏在告一段落,峽谷一涧雾气

生紫烟

 

Rainbow after the Rain

Green mountains wear a rainbow necklace after a rain

half of it made of young green mountains, the other half of it made of blue romantic water

It gradually widens when closing or

Nature is so amazing, as this sunset and this mountains and rivers

Perhaps, they also are “yearning for the leisurely nature of heaven and earth”

The dusk is coming to an end, the valley is filled with the mist

forming purple smoke

 

18 翠翠

 

在一滴泪里睡去,醒来是草英之上

一滴露水

迎风,被阳光弄碎,碎也是美

阳雀声声,喊她翠翠

 

Green

Sleeping in a tear, then waking up on the grass

A drop of dew facing the wind,

shattered by the sunlight, to be pieces is also a beauty

The sound of a sunny cuckoo, calling her “green, green”

 

19 一云绯闻

 

遮天的那夜,黑就行了

蔽日的那云,一朵够了

人黑人,一云绯闻足矣

所知障未知,闭眼一切就没了

 

A Cloud with Rumors

On that night the sky was covered, then it became dark

If clouds try to block the sun, only one cloud is enough

A person framing a case against another one, even a rumor is too much

The known impedes the unknown, everything will be gone away if you close eyes

 

20 奇幻禁地

 

这世界若只是一“咫尺”

天涯会去哪儿露宿

地球的南极与北极若只是两行诗

不知归期和遥不可及

还存在吗

却因为我和你,在此奇幻禁地

闲人免进

 

Fantasy Forbidden Area

If this world is just within a short distance

Where will be the place used for camping by the world

If the South Pole and the North Pole of the earth were just two lines of poetry

Would the uncertain date of return and the unreachable place

still exist?

But because of you and me, in this fantasy forbidden land

So no entry for other people
