沉默以對

圖：門前早晨的露珠  Satyavan He

語言渴望結束它與思想之間的曖昧關係，

卻無論如何說不出口，只能沉默以對。

就像早晨的露珠，

在最後的蒸融消失裡，

總是來不及向黑夜的寧静道別。

     Responding with Silence

Language longs to end

its ambiguous entanglement with thought,

yet no matter how it tries,

it cannot speak—

it can only respond with silence.

Like morning dew,

vanishing in its final evaporation,

always too late

to bid farewell

to the quiet of the night.
