《除草》

花果园的男人提着他的小马达
整整一个冬天
没有拧过一个螺丝帽
没有理会蔓延四处的野草
和昨夜小春山上知更鸟汲水的声音
现在是午后, 他听到草丛里蚱蜢干渴的鼓噪
他抬了抬左腿,四个轮子高过了草尖尖
他上足了油, 给发动机, 给油箱, 给运动鞋的橡胶底板
他右脚一踹
追赶着春风, 追赶着吐沫星翻飞的草末, 暧昧的露水
流到了裤管。赤膊子上阵的
赶马人, 四月的阳光汹涌澎湃
四月的青草插上了翅膀
知更鸟的叫声一阵阵传来
他唱的歌词里有一眼水灵灵的井
小马达整夜整夜在小春山上轰鸣

Lawnmowing

The man in the garden is starting his little engine.
For a whole winter,
He did not turn a single screw,
did not pay any attention to the grass overgrown
and the songs of robins drinking water
on top of the Spring Mountain last night
It's turning afternoon, he heard thirsty noises of grasshopper in the deep grass.
He lifted his left leg, lifted four wheels over tall weeds
He added more oil to the engine, more gas to the tank, wearing his sports shoes
He started the machine
ran as fast as wind, grasses flying, dews moistening
the pants. He is like a rider
stripped to the waist. In such a day of April, the sun is shining through his skin
The grasses are flapping with wings
He is listening to the songs of robins
He is singing a song about a deep well
A powerful engine is roaring night after night on top of the little Mountain.

《郁金香》

是四月的花

四月不来，她不开，早上不开
夜里也不开，她的
连衣裙不红，嘴唇不红，不流鲜血
帽子不黄，皮肤也不黄，不朝热烈的太阳
吐金子

现在你就是四月的全部
当然，如果四月就是我
你还会朝我微笑，并暴露
上下四颗小白牙

也可能是黄的——镶着黄金
也可能是红的——咬得太深

是谁说过，四月是
最郁金香的月份——
如果没听说过，我照样会
大模大样站在荒原之上，或者会说出
你听说过的另一个句子

Tulip

Tulip is the flower of April

She will not blossom without this month,
not in the morning, not in the evening. Her
skirts will not be red, neither will be her lips, breeding
Her hat will not be yellow, neither will be her skin, shining
to the hot sun, in my eyes, like gold grains.

Now you are the whole of April
And if I am the April
you will even smile at me, and revealing
four white tiny teeth

which might be yellow——embroidered with gold
or red——biting deep into my skin

Who has said, April is the most
tulip month, to the soul——
If not yet, I will still be standing
on the west land, and might talk out
another well-known sentence
