能从一块石头的沉默,读出
大山的心思
石匠的性子和凿出的基石一样厚实
习惯了被埋在底层
他们用铁锤和凿子寻找坚硬
手上的茧就是LOGO
凿出柱墩、基石、门当、石狮和街石
石匠看重的人
会用青石为他凿一块碑
用一座山的重量去刻,像刻一座山
有人要石匠为他凿世界上最高的碑
石匠在凿的时候把这个人视为凿去的部分
石匠忙碌了一生,刻了很多碑
却来不及刻自己的墓志铭
他倒下时
铁锤和凿子都累了,靠在墙边
不说话

one can read the mind of the mountain
from the silence of the stone
the stoneman is as thick as the cornerstone
accustomed to his burial beneath the floor
they seek hardness with hammer and chisel, the calluses on their hands, their LOGO
carving out the pillar, the base, the gate, the stone lion and the cobblestone
someone he cares about
will chisel a bluestone stele for him
carving with the weight of a mountain like a mountain
he is asked to build the world's tallest gravestone
he cuts the slab with her in mind
the stoneman busily carves so many gravestones
but finds no time for his own epitaph
when he falls to the earth
his exhausted hammer and chisel lean against the wall
and make no sound
