【The Auroras of Autumn·I (1948)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) This is where the serpent lives, the bodiless. His head is air. Beneath his tip at night Eyes open and fix on us in every sky.
Or is this another wriggling out of the egg, Another image at the end of the cave, Another bodiless for the body's slough?
This is where the serpent lives. This is his nest, These fields, these hills, these tinted distances, And the pines above and along and beside the sea.
This is form gulping after formlessness, Skin flashing to wished-for disappearances And the serpent body flashing without the skin.
This is the height emerging and its base These lights may finally attain a pole In the midmost midnight and find the serpent there,
In another nest, the master of the maze Of body and air and forms and images, Relentlessly in possession of happiness.
This is his poison: that we should disbelieve Even that. His meditations in the ferns, When he moved so slightly to make sure of sun,
Made us no less as sure. We saw in his head, Black beaded on the rock, the flecked animal, The moving grass, the Indian in his glade. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《秋天的极光·之一》(1948年)】 异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【红霞译】 这是蛇生活的地方,没有形体。 他的脑袋是空的。夜晚头顶下 眼睛睁开注视着我们每片天空。
这是破壳爬出的又一件东西, 洞穴深处的又一幅图像, 肉体蜕变的又一个灵魂?
这是蛇生活的地方。这是他的巢穴, 广袤的原野,绵延的山丘,斑斓的色差, 还有地面、沿途和海边的松林。
这是无形之后吞噬形体, 肌肤闪烁到希望消失 蜕皮的蛇身泛起光芒。
露出地面的高度 光照可能最终覆盖极地 午夜时分在那里找到蛇,
在另一个巢穴中,迷宫主人 身体和感觉,形状和图像, 毫不留情地占据着幸福。
这是他的毒药:我们应该怀疑 即使事已至此。他在蕨丛中沉思, 当轻微移动以确定阳光,
更让我们坚信不移。我们所见所感, 挂在岩石上的黑色串珠,身带斑点的动物, 移动的草坪,林间空地的印第安人。 【注】世界金融中心或称溪流草甸广场(Brookfield Place)是弓区的购物中心和办公楼综合体,而北湾码头则是全市最受欢迎的船埠海港。 Today in History(历史上的今天): 2022: A Wandering Life in Metropolitan NYC-4(浪迹纽约大都会之四) 2022: Ladies' Mile Historic District, NYC(纽约仕女一英里历史街区) 2022:Madison Sq & Flatiron District, NYC(纽约麦迪逊广场与熨斗区) 2022: WTC Oculus & Memorial Site, NYC(纽约“大眼睛”车站与世贸中心纪念地) 2022: Headquarters of the United Nations, NYC(纽约联合国总部) 2022:Federal Hall NM—US Subtreasury, NYC(纽约联邦大厅·国库分部) 2022: Pat the Charging Bull for Good Luck, NYC(纽约华尔街金融牛) 2022: The Battery & Clinton Castle NM, NYC(纽约炮台地头堡国家纪念地) 2022:Trinity Church Wall Street, NYC(纽约·华尔街三一教堂) World Financial Center & North Cove Marina (世界金融中心与北湾码头) North Cove Marina Viewed from Jersey City, NJ (从新州草城远眺北湾码头) WTC against One WTC Freedom Tower (世界金融中心与世贸中心一号自由大厦) Sailing Yacht Ventura (帆船·游艇·好运) Waterfront Plaza (海滨广场) North Cove Yacht Harbor Battery Park City (北湾游艇港炮台公园城) Battery Park City Esplanade (炮台公园城市滨海步道 09-30-2006) NYC Police Memorial Constructed of Green Granite Using Water as a Metaphor (纽约市警察纪念碑·由绿色花岗岩建造并以水为隐喻) Esplanade Plaza (步道广场 04-18-2004)
