Sway

 

the grilled fish place still open

and this entire street seems high

 

perforate the fish belly

to season the thought of death

lithe slippery body

flipping side A side B

chopsticks peeling the skin

so the soul can be free

 

it’s over now

 

sway

completely naked

let the drunks puff air

at their staggering friends

put the skull in a wheel

crushed over and over

stopper the isolation

up in a bottle

 

the people who want to die haven’t

but move along in this glazed rut

picking out the bones as they go

 

toward the soft moon at the end of the street

rekindling

who killed you

 

 

晃荡

 

整条街都抹了致幻剂

街头的烤鱼店还没打烊

钻进鱼肚为

想死的念头码好佐料

身子轻盈像鱼一样

从A面翻到B面

每一筷子都是在为出窍

的灵魂剥离皮肉

 

现在好了

赤裸裸地晃荡吧

让酒鬼从胸膛穿过

向坠落的同伴吹一口气

脑袋放进车轮反复碾压

用空瓶子盛装幸存的孤立

 

想死的人没死

继续沿着酒精的路径晃荡

边走边剔骨

到街尾用一枚软月亮

救活杀你的人
