Most of it’s too dreary
他——呀,他来做主持,
or too cherry red.
几乎无不是,
If it’s a chair, it’s
不是每每面红耳赤,
covered with things
就是次次一脸忧郁;
the Savior said
他用一种指甲油,
or should have said—
密密麻麻,麻麻密密——
dense admonishments
写在身上某某大咖赞助语,
in nail polish
字迹小得没法比,
too small to be read.
咳——不知写的啥东西;
If it’s a picture, /d
说他像幅画吧,
the frame is either
可整个粘在一起啦,
burnt matches glued together
画面还有边边框,咳,粘在一起啦;
or a regular frame painted over
看他正面脸,那张亮点抢眼正面脸,
to extend the picture. There never
翻呀翻,展呀展,翻展随着边框转;
seems to be a su**ce equal
他呀,他呀,想看他那正面相,
to the needs of these people.
啥时能像啊,人们要的那个样;
Their purpose wraps /c
哎呦喂,他呀,他呀,
around the backs of things
偏想,偏想,偏想靠着扶手背,
and under arms;
转呀,转呀,受支配;
they gouge and hatch /b
像他这伙人,钻呀钻,
and glue on charms
凿啊凿,乐此不疲,
till likable materials—
腻在一起,把些好东西——
apple crates and canning funnels—
(穿过个个苹果箱,越过条条传送网)
lose their rural ease. We are not
轻轻松松,逞心如意,弄到老田去;
pleased the way we thought
像他这伙人,他们这行径,哼,
we would be pleased.
总是让人感觉不高兴 ... ...
