陽光中的向日葵
 
 
 你看到了嗎
 你看到陽光中的那棵向日葵了嗎
 你看它，它沒有低下頭
 而是把頭轉向身後
 就好像是為了一口咬斷
 那套在它脖子上的
 那牽在太陽手中的繩索
 
 你看到它了嗎
 你看到那棵昂著頭
 怒視著太陽的向日葵了嗎
 它的頭幾乎已把太陽遮住
 它的頭即使是在沒有太陽的時候
 也依然在閃耀著光芒
 
 你看到那棵向日葵了嗎
 你應該走近它
 你走近它便會發現
 它腳下的那片泥土
 每抓起一把
 都一定會攥出血來

 
 SUNFLOWER IN THE SUN
 
 
 Have you seen it?
 Have you seen that sunflower in the sunlight?
 Look- she never lowers her head
 but turns herself away
 as if to chew away
 that rope around her neck
 that drags her in the hands of the sun.
 
 Have you seen it?
 Have you seen her lifting her head-
 that sunflower glaring at the sun?
 Her head almost obscures the sun
 Her head is still ablaze with light
 even in the absence of the sun
 
 Have you seen that sunflower?
 You should approach it
 When you come closer you will discover
 underneath that patch of mudded soil
 whenever you grasp a fistful
 will always be gripped with blood
