思想

Thought

犹如加速的弹头
火车，急射穿入
未知地带里
幽暗、深长的隧道，
奔向目力
有限的尽头，
那微弱的光亮。
			

Like a speeding bullet 
train, shot through 
dark and long tunnel 
in an unknown territory 
towards the faint light 
at the periphery 
of the limited version.
			

气球

Balloon

一旦摆脱细线的束缚，
获得自由，
你就腾空而起，
奔向无垠的蔚蓝，
即使最终
自身炸为碎片，
也在所不惜。
			

Once free off the string, 
you would rise all the way 
up towards the boundless azure, 
taking no consideration 
that you would 
eventually explode 
into many tiny pieces.
			

头发

Hair

那些不知名的想法，
深深根植在我们的头脑里，
没有能够
形成语言的形式，
就在头顶上长了出来，
又长又结实。

有那么多，但我们
一点办法也没有，
只好把他们剪去，
然后扔掉。
			

Those unknown ideas 
rooted deep in our mind 
without forming 
into any language 
grow out on top of our heads, 
strong and long. 

There are so many 
of them, but too bad, 
we have to cut them and 
throw it away. 
			

本能

Instinct

好比水底的气泡，
一旦有机会
便会冒出水面，
来接受大气层的拥抱，
来享受阳光的亲吻。
			

Like bubble under water, 
it rises up as soon 
as there is a chance 
to be in the embrace 
of atmosphere 
under the kiss of sun.
