春風煽動了思想的細節
苦楝花的香氣意圖打亂人類的言語
日漸枯竭的想象為我翻開古冊
那是偶然的第16頁
純粹似童年凝視著窗外大海
夢裡回憶未來
只有厲鷂和它們的天空自由飛翔
—— 讀小學時的座號16，成了我地球之旅記憶中最深刻的數字。
*古冊golceq，台語“故事書、古書”
*黑鳶，厲鴞、厲鷂、鶆鴞、獵鴞、麻鴞(台語llaihioh[laiheoh]讀如台語“內葉、厲葉”，一般擬音寫作的“來葉”其實“來”字音調不符只能說是音近而已，llahioh、vvahioh。厲lai獵la一音之轉，“厲”音lai，台語“真厲害”曰“真厲jin－lai”，厲鷂之“厲”或是此義，猛禽也。而粵語稱麻鷹，我猜台語麻鴞vvahioh可能和這個有關。小時候在基隆八斗子都聽過這三種稱呼。黑鳶，一種基隆海邊常見的捕魚為生的老鷹。台語拼音字寫法請參閱這篇“台語羅馬拼音字試寫” 。讀唸時“古冊” 和“厲鷂”用台語，英譯時“厲鷂”用的是台語拼音。

(*The following is an English translation of the poem)
Accidental 16
The spring breeze stirs the details of thought
The fragrance of the bitter neem flower intends to disrupt human speech
My imagination, which is gradually drying up, opens a story book for me
That was accidental page 16
Purely like childhood, gazing at the sea outside the window
In dreams, recalling the future
Only the llaihiohs flying freely with their sky
—— My seat number 16 when I was in elementary school has become the most memorable number in my memories of my trip to Earth.
*Llaihioh[laiheoh](It’s the Taiwanese name厲鷂 for black kite or Milvus migrans ), a common fishing eagle on the Keelung coast. For pinyin characters, please refer to this article
“台語羅馬拼音字試寫” (Taiwanese Romanized Pinyin Characters). The words "古冊golceq" and "厲鷂llaihioh " are in Taiwanese when read, and "厲鷂" is in Taiwanese pinyin when translated into English.
