狗

一条哈巴狗

穿一件红马甲

翘着尾巴

从眼前

大摇大摆地

走过

仿佛跟着一个

大人物

Dog

A toady dog

Dressed in a red vest

Tail sticking up high

Before my eyes

Strutted by

As if following

A big shot

角色

参加完婚礼

又赴一个葬礼

一辈子

像跑龙套一样

都在赶场

连表情都来不及

换一下

Role

Right after a wedding

I rushed to a funeral

My entire life

Is like playing a small role on the stage

Running from one show to the next

With no time even for a change

Of facial expressions

记忆

记忆就像一个蜂窝

挂在老槐树上

月光轻轻地捅一下

往事便倾巢出动

蜇得我浑身

青一块紫一块

Memory

Memory, hung on an old pagoda tree

Is like a hornet nest

When poked slightly by the moonlight

Out swarm the bygones

Their stings left me with

Blacks and blues

猴子

锣一响

猴子便跳出来

不停地蹦哒

自以为这巴掌大的地盘

就是舞台

不知道被人耍着

Monkey

The moment the gong rings

The monkey would leap out

And keep jumping around

Taking this palm-sized domain

As a stage

Unaware of being tricked

理想

一块印着暗花的小手帕

被我反复地使用

沾满了泪水、鼻涕和血迹

像一块旧抹布

藏在衣袋里

轻意不敢掏出

Ideal

A small handkerchief printed with faint flowers

Has been used by me over and over

Now all stained with tears, snot, and blood

Like an old rag

Which I keep in my pocket

And never risk taking out

猫

撅着屁股

趴在窗台上

瞅着

夜晚的城市

在猫眼里

只剩下一只老鼠

The Cat

Sticking up its butts

Crouching on the windowsill

He looks at

The city of the night

In his eyes there's nothing left

But a mouse

组装

把身体拆开

摆放整齐

一件一件清洗

擦拭

组装成一个奥特曼

从此

刀枪不入

Assembly

I disassemble my body

And lay the parts in order

Wash and wipe

One by one

And assemble them into an Ultraman

Henceforth

No sword nor spear can impale
