【Humpback Whale】 Nancy Anne Miller You need a hump to be in tune with a curvy ocean, to rise like one in Notre Dame's Cathedral.
You need a hump to let the ocean somersault a blub- bery body, keep weight out of the traffic of lighter species.
You need a hump to sing the depth's mutterings, let it roll over, course off from a large wagging tongue. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《座头鲸》】 (百慕大)恩典·仁慈·米勒“磨坊主” 【红霞译】 你欲望弓背来 谐和波折的 海洋,挺拔得如同 巴黎圣母院。
你欲望弓背助 海洋翻筋斗—— 肥硕的体魄,避免撞遇 质轻的物种。
你欲望弓背唱 低沉吟咏,让它 翻腾吧,歌声流自 噪舌的大嘴巴。
【注】百慕大“勇气”群岛隶属英国海外属地,由181个岛屿组成,可谓著名的离岸金融中心和避税天堂;其总督由英国政府提名并代表国王查尔斯“自由人”三世掌管内政事务,而英国负责它的外交、国防和安全。 百慕大主岛不大,驱车一整天足以熟谙东西南北,但这里的消费成本是美国的三倍,外地游客不准开车,格局大的才敢跟自然环境较真。归根结底,来此享受度假无异于体验本地的座右铭:钱包要鼓,功夫要闲,情绪要爽,命运之所在! Quo Fata Ferunt or Where Fates Are Carried!
