自帶杯

圖：在池上7-11東馳店喝自帶杯咖啡，對面大地飯店椰子樹身後遠方是土想森林所在的海岸山脈。

這個下午變天陰雨，暗得早。

透過Seven落地窗回望土想森林，感覺像是一種清明夢的自我觀照。

在一個有Hellokitty的Seven裡
乾淨明亮的落地窗觀照著我的自帶杯

剛剛啜飲了一口咖啡

它廉價但意味深長的氣息  緩緩地

飄向遠方的海岸山脈

直到夜色淹沒了這一切

       Bring Your Own Cup

Inside a 7-Eleven with Hello Kitty décor,

the clean bright window gazes back

at my humble, carried cup.

I sip a mouthful of coffee—

cheap, yet filled with meanings—

its breath drifts slowly,

toward the Coastal Mountains afar,

until nightfall swallows it all.

    —— At the Dongchi 7-Eleven in Chishang,

I drank coffee with my own cup.

Across the street, behind the coconut trees

of the Taitung Dadi Hotel,

the Coastal Mountains stretch,

where the Earthinking Towsiunn Forest lies.

That afternoon turned rainy and dim too soon.

Through the store’s wide glass window

I gazed back toward the forest,

as if it were a lucid dream

reflecting my own awareness.
