跋涉于

wade

黑玉。

through black jade

乌鸦蓝的蚌贝中，

Of the crow-blue mussel-shells, one keeps

有一只

adjusting the ash heaps;

不停地拨弄堆起的沙子；

opening and shutting itself like

自开自合，像

an

injured fan.

一只

The barnacles which encrust the side

受伤的扇子。

of the wave, cannot hide

藤壶在波浪

there for the submerged shafts of the

边缘

sun,

结壳，无处

split like spun

隐藏，如水下太阳的

glass, move themselves with spotlight swiftness

into the crevices–

光轴

in and out, illuminating

不断分裂，如旋转不停

the

的玻璃，以聚光灯闪烁的光的

turquoise sea

移动，

of bodies. The water drives a wedge

进入岩缝——

of iron through the iron edge

时隐时现，照亮

of the cliff; whereupon the stars,

pink

这

rice-grains, ink-

绿宝石般的，

bespattered jelly-fish, crabs like green

尸体之海。水推动一块

lilies, and submarine

铁楔，

toadstools, slide each on the other.

穿过悬崖的

All

铁栏，远处有海星，

external

marks of abuse are present on this

粉红色的

defiant edifice–

小鱼，墨汁

all the physical features of

飞溅的海蜇，像

ac-

绿色

cident–lack

海百合的螃蟹，水底的

of cornice, dynamite grooves, burns, and

伞菌，彼此滑动。

hatchet strokes, these things stand

out on it; the chasm-side is

所有的

dead.

外部的

Repeated

施暴的印痕都在

evidence has proved that it can live

这

on what can not revive

蔑视一切的里程碑之上——

its youth. The sea grows old in it.

所有意外事件的物理

特

征——残缺的

屋檐，炸药槽，烧焦的，

以及

斧头敲打的痕迹，这些事物在它

之上；断层的边缘是

死亡。

重复的

证据，证明它可以

活

即使它的青春

无法挽回，海生与斯，老于斯。
