獅的低吟，詩的回聲
一個人長大，總有很多幻想和苦惱，寫下來，就成了詩。下面收集的，是家裡老三的詩，經常寫在小紙片上，讀過了，也就丟了。父母總是喜歡孩子的作品，放在一起，也許，孩子長大了，會再讀一遍。
老三做事很慢，寫了篇蝸牛，一半是自嘲，一半是辯解
Snail Boy
They call me snail boy slow minded I am not quick to work I am a procrastinator, I've been told my tactics lack tact It's bad, procrastination won't hack it in the real world. I can hear their mocking words loudest when the hands of the clock open doors to sleepless hours those nights I taste defeat because I'm salty bitter and sour, but I know that this is no time to cower, so I retreat into my shell and bring out my superpower The Bam! when my mind is in the throes of woes it's a showdown smackdown I'mma crack down on these packages til the time that it takes to make them know I'm no lightweight and they back down I'm a math whiz, I practice Efficient tactics fact is I love crackin books I’m a fact addict when a month's work is due I don't panic, get back at it faster than Danny and his white vans vines vanished and as surely as finish work with proficiency, what they call a last minute rush is merely efficiency People preach procrastination as sin and I don't call them out on false Doctrine so when people point me out and mocking my sins I low key tiptoe on leather toe moccasins I don’t fight with them because they’re right. Getting work done early is respectable but it doesn’t make me any less of an intellectual, Being slow simply means I have to find the shortcuts in straight lines and tread the fine line between dead of night and dead lines, I never dreaded getting metaphorically beheaded over getting better grades or having x- marked red lines, I never let a letter get the better of me only part of me that’s missing is a better bed time. And they say that procrastination is appalling But it’s more of a mollusc workaholic rest calling Me warning myself when I’m not in tip top shape When I’m tired of life I’m okay with sleeping half of it away When my first world problems don’t make me feel like trying and studying falls apart and turns into student dying When my emotional roller coasters are engineered to keep on falling And I’m no Lebron but I still feel like bawling Those are days when I’m most grateful to be a snail boy Days when I’m glad priority one is napping Or letting my mind meditate over whatever’s been happening Cuz procrastination means that I put myself first And productivity isn’t problem free, so for better or for worse, I’ll let my problems free I’ll probably regret it in the morning But not as much as I’ll regret not listening to snail boy’s warning.
優裕和憂鬱，我們都希望過上衣食無憂的優裕生活，但優裕的生活往往導致憂鬱
First world problems!!!!
This is a part of me that I don’t share with others much Cuz I like to have my problems hide inside me but I trust That through writing these word I can open myself up And I think I’ve suffered in silence for long enough
Mental health is hard to talk about already It gets harder when people call me petty Or whiny or weak, or to man up and fight It hurts me when they say that cuz they’re absolutely right
First world probuhlems I got a lot of them I don’t complain enough And so I go and bottle them Up in my body when I really oughta be Vomiting them out like it’s spaghetti that mama eats
I’m so white washed my mando is limited And my accent makes me sound primitive I tell my relatives ever since I’ve known them Dui bu qi, wo bu zhi dao zhongwen （對不起，我不知道中文）
It’s so stressful when I’m posing for a photo If I don’t got sunglasses then my eyes go Wider til they fit the white standards cuz I don’t Want to be the joke because my egos only so-so
Punctuality is not in my reality today It’s a fallacy that I would rather be awake Rest in peace to all my goals of never being late By morning I’ll be mourning my ability to motivate
First world probuhlems, I got a lot of them I don’t complain enough And so I go and bottle them Up in my body when I really oughta be Vomiting them out like it’s spaghetti that mama eats
I’m a little terrified of what the future holds Cuz I’m lazy when it comes to planning future goals So when people ask me what do you want to do I tell them engineer because they tell me they approve
Homework turns me into the illest of all my villains I lie to me despising me, I say that I’ll be filling All my worksheets out it never ends up working out The only thing I’m fulfilling is filling my infinite will too be chilling
My internet, you can bet, is out to get me Contrary to Telus, the future isn’t friendly It’s so slow my teamates think I’m going AFK If we are treated equally, why does my wifi lag?
First world probuhlems I got a lot of them I don’t complain enough And so I go and bottle them Up in my body when I really oughta be Vomiting them out like it’s spaghetti that mama eats
First world probuhlems I got a lot of them But I also got a lot a people I can vomit on Thanks for hearing me puke out all my probuhlems Rhyming rants is therapeutic those are words I promise on
這是老三用切的口吻的演講。切有五個兄弟姐妹，也有五個孩子，也許人多的家庭，更容易走上革命之路。
The future generation has come. 未來的一代已經來臨
It is up to the common people to overthrow the past and live anew 這是普通人棄舊迎新的一刻 I have seen South America’s corruption through the defeated eyes of the poor, and the suffering and oppression caused by the capitalist regimes of the US. 從窮人哀弱的眼裡映射的是南美的腐化官僚和被美國資本主義的痛苦壓榨 Through my journeys across the continent, I have been changed. 南美大陸的穿越改變了我。 I used to think that the best way to heal wounds was through medicine. 我過去以為藥可以療傷， To fix people’s sickness through care, to help the poor through kindness 細心照顧可以治療病人，善心善行可以幫助窮人。 I was wrong. 可我錯了。 I hopped aboard a motorcycle with my friend Alberto, wanting to simply explore, and see the world for what it was. 我和我的朋友阿伯托躍上摩托車只為探索和看一眼世界的本來面目。 There, I saw the strength of the human spirit, loyalty and solidarity beyond anything I could’ve imagined but what I also saw, was the shivering flesh and blood victims of capitalist exploitation. 在那兒，我看到了人類的精神力量，難以想象的忠誠和團結，但也看到了顫抖的身軀和被資本家剝削，受害者滲出的血液。 The inescapable poverty of the common people and the disgusting wealth of the landlords. 普通人無法逃脫的貧窮和令人憎惡地主的財富。 I couldn’t treat a child because of a lack of money. 我無奈不治療無錢看病的孩子。 I couldn’t accept his death as an unimportant accident. 我無法接受他的死亡象輕描淡寫的一個事件。 I can’t heal a dying nation because no amount of medicine can cure corruption 我回春無力，沒有足夠的藥能治療腐敗～一個正在死亡的國家 This is why I fight. 這就是為什麼我抗爭 Why I let bullets fly into the nation I am so determined to save 為什麼讓子彈橫飛在我決意要拯救的國家 As a guerrilla, some call me a cold blooded killer. I would agree with them. 作為一個游擊隊員，有人稱我“冷血殺手＂我同意。 But to stand by as eyewitness to oppression is worse. 但袖手旁觀欺壓更可惡。 I will not back down when the revolution is ripe for the picking 當革命之果成熟待采，我絕不會後退 So stand up, let your voice be heard as gunfire and raise the red flag of rebellion. 起來，高舉紅旗，讓槍代言，革命。 After all, it is better to die standing than to live on your knees 畢竟，站着死好過屈膝活。
老三寫的一首打油詩，在一次詩歌朗誦會上念過，聽眾笑得很開心，願大家開心。
Dear Alfred J Gross
When you invented the walkie- talkie, the US military asked you to improve their communication systems. Personally, I would've preferred if they asked you to improve the English Language. Because forks would be called stabby grabbies, burgers would be krabby patties so I would grab a stabby grabby to nub a krabby patty, and the krusty krabby always has these yumy seafood dishes. Instead of jelly fish you could eat the delishy squishy fishy, and when you're having a moment and your body feels so sloppy the tissue for any issue is here, but now it's called snotty scotties and you probably named zangy tangys and laffy taffies but why not call tic-tacs ticky tackies and if you got cool pants I'd say you got slicky slackies even slicker is the cats and kit kats would be kitty katties and obviously backpacks would be backy packies hackysacks would be hacky sackies sharpies would be finey lineys 21 pilots would be finey rhymey Shakespeare would be saddity tragedy trains would be rickety rackety thing on a trackety and a rich man from Iraq riding a train with a cool black pants and tic tacs and kit kats and hackysacks in his backpack would be a kitty katty, ticky tacky, hacky sacky, backy packy, rickety rackety thing on a trackety, slick black slacky, fat stack Iraqi.
Dear Alfred J. Gross, Personally I would've preferred if they asked you to improve the English Language. What a shame that they never saw the potential. Because if you're into the Mario Kart, bananas wuld be slippy trippies If you prefere elevators over stairs you would ride the niffy lifty. Microwave informercials would say you likely like these eaty heaties. Money would be needy greedy. weeping willows would be griefy leafies. wool pajammas would be lamby jammies or softy sheepy sleepies. Night light would be nighty lighties Park benches would be city sitties. Finals would be exammy cammy Slam jam would be slammy jammy. And if you're crying more than a weeping willow because you're in your pajamas and want to go to sleep but you are burning the midnight oil to study for finals so you can get a job and make money so you won't have to sleep on a park bench, which is why slam jam exists, you would be more weepy than a griefy leafy half asleepy in your lamby jammies or your sheepy sleepies cramming for exammy crammies so you get the needy greedy and not have to fall asleepy on a city sitty pretty much the reason that we have a slammy jammy that's so savvy.
Dear Alfred J. Gross, It's a shame you only named the walkie-talkie.
老三不善社交，這詩表達了他的感受。
awkward anatomy
Sorry. This is something that's wrong with me. I don't know what to say , it's quite frightful honestly. I'm looking in the mirror thinking what is the matter with me. welcome, to my world of awkward anatomy.
My fingers, they just don't seem to fit in with the rest of me I don't mind high fives, it's the hair slicks that get the best of me. To my hands, I wish I was a bacteria, is what I'd tell em. No more fist bump or handshake, I'd just have flagellum. When it comes to lifting, I'm just not the keenest. I've foreseen it, I'll lift too much and injure my tricep. And speaking of lifting, my pick up lines are cold. I told her dang girl to be fair, that really is a fine shoulder. My compact compounds combine chemically. My nerdiness is stamped on my forehead quite legibly. Like helium, I just don't bond quite readily, which probably explains why I don't have have any chemistry. I put the bored in board walk it gets me down cuz it's on top of me. If my mind crashes was cold cash, I'd have an awkward monopoly. I understand my awkwardness down to an awkward science. Like my vocal cords, they exhibit exquisite forms of awkward silence. The reason I excommunicate, the very thoughts that you would make. I don't want to be a rude dirt bag, I hide in the dirt like a rutabaga. Gotta deal with my feelings sooner or later. But as a chronic procrastinator, I choose later. These feelings I fight with are always within. Even walking up here, I feel uncomfortable in my own skin. But when I started flowing, I know that no showing is a no no. the show is ago I ain't settling for so so. It's time for my solo. Soliloquy of lonely teen poetry only it'll end on a nice note. So go hoist the lines cuz fire lines are my life boat.
I'm rowing it's showing no sign of land. But I'm willing to take the chance and leave it all to dice roll. And when they stop rolling, what remain to be seen is a picture perfect moment like the ending of a Disney scene. I feel invincible, it's like I'm in a dream. And when I mess up, I still got my boys KRISPY KREME. Unconquerable, can't curb this courage. Celebrate like Daniel Sturridge. All the things that were too scary to say are released on stage and washed away. And I become the awkward person the next day. There are times when I wish I could handle the social insanity, that I was someone without an awkward anatomy. An awkward person is not what I want to be. But for moments like this, I'm glad that awkward person is me.
給我的詩 Hey dad,
Did you know that your mind is like a black hole? Sucking in knowledge like there's no tomorrow, And through the matter pulled in, you use it to raise as bright a light as you can. The intense friction created by the immense gravity is the brightest light known to man. But the black hole itself remains invisible. Undoubtedly, you could've risen to fame as a brilliant mind. But you threw it all away to raise us up to be the stars that you saw in us, when The rest of the world only saw space dust. With the trust that we could be big enough to hold up your hopes and dreams, like the beams that support us There's this stigma about black holes that they bring destruction. But you bring out life. Like none other, you raised a family. And that's a courageous deed to say the least when you bring up twice the life at half the peace. You could've had an easy life. You could've had a big house and a nice car. But you chose us. You didn't want fake bling, you wanted real stars. And although I may not be as bright as the sun, I'd say you raised a pretty bright son. And with this light, I'll show the world, that the black holes are the brightest.
母親節禮物，寫給媽媽的。
Dear Mom
You are granite
Bedrock that l plop problems onto like a marble counter top
You've never stopped stopping whatever for me
And I admire how you stand solidly
When others are falling to pieces, geology
Runs through my veins so I already
Know that the granite you're made of is top quality
I learned that continents drift on oceans of molten rock
Separating heat from the delicate life on earth.
They bear the heat and provide a place for life to grow,
The same way you make this house a home
The same way you bear so much for us,
I now know why they call the land, Mother Earth
How only mothers can support so many others
And adorn us with diamonds of hope that they found
Digging through dirt, I will always see worth in Granite
Because granite is this planet's support
And fragile minerals like me clearly need help of quartz
So thank you for growing life on this planet
I promise I won't take you for granite
年青人不容易
It aint easy
Tell me if you need me Whenever it aint easy Ill be there by your side Wherever it leads me Cuz baby it aint easy To keep you off my mind I remember the moment I fell it felt like a robbery You took my breath away and my heart was stolen off of me. And honestly speaking, just the thought of it boggled me Cuz to keep my heart protected I kept it under lock and key But somehow destiny went and dead ass finessed the key And now my broken open emotions intend to mess with me. I’m hoping you know I know I’m pretty blessed to be Someone you see the best in so I keep flexing the bestest me. Life is a play, they say you are the highlights I’m your biggest fan, yeah I don’t mind the sidelines Cuz the glow from your halo it lights me up like the limelight I’ll do anything to have you by my side So Tell me if you need me Whenever it aint easy Ill be there by your side Wherever it leads me Cuz baby it aint easy To keep you off my mind Talk about anything, doesn’t matter what your choice I would swim across the seas, hopin just to hear your voice I would drown, tossed around, like a rubber ducky toy. Find me floatin in the open ocean. Here’s your buoy Look at the mess I’m in better not mess with it letting my head or my heart be the head organ I be depressive and I keep on stressin it I be confessin that you are my everything Anything prevalent stepping down getting a staircase for second place You taking presidence over the president, reppin it Better than anyone ever since Jefferson. Like the sun and the stars I think of you day and nightly. I try to be chill, but youre so enticing That I keep my cool like a puddle of ice cream Melting in your arms when you hold me so tightly So Tell me if you need me Whenever it aint easy Ill be there by your side Wherever it leads me Cuz baby it aint easy To keep you off my mind 太太的翻譯 告訴我 是否需要我 的你 無論如何不易 願和你一起 不論走向何地 你在我腦海的痕跡 是徒勞地 揮之難棄 記得那一秒里 你俘虜我的呼吸 偷走了心意 讓我坦言 一想你 會忐忑情迷 暗暗悄鎖起 以防這失控的心 失離 命運手握一把奇巧 精緻 無往而不勝的鑰匙 開心 無畏無懼無需道理 奔湧出擠碎的情感濃濃滴滴 試圖攪我成一團亂思緒 望你能知 我會明白並珍惜 這所有的福氣 曲合適意 只為讓你 看到最好的我自己 告訴我 是否需要我 的你 無論如何不易 願和你一起 不論走向何地 你在我腦海的痕跡 是徒勞地 揮之難棄 生活是本 劇 你是台上的那束 最耀眼的光聚 而我卻是你 最深情 強大的戲迷 是的 做你的旁白 我會毫不介意 你的光環 閃亮我一如聚光燈下的明麗 願做一切 只為你在身旁相依 不管怎樣的話語 亦或選擇 我願縱身躍下 泅渡大海 只為在濤聲中 尋你起伏心情的聲音 亦或 我溺水 沉浮 像只玩具鴨的翻立 只為讓你 在廣際無邊的海域 覓我做你的浮標 腦海里閃現的唯一急需 我已心亂如麻 不該讓腦再失於心 這份失落和緊張 坦白 你是我一切的意 任何光彩 都降下 退到下一級 你是我的王中王 強過傑福遜以來的所有統領 就像太陽和這繁星 我的思念升起 在每個白天與黑夜裡 我想冷靜 但誘人的魅力 無法抗抵 我凍成冰淇淋 在被握緊的手心裡 禁不住 成為落在你手臂上的滴 告訴我 是否需要我 的你 無論如何不易 願和你一起 不論走向何地 你在我腦海的痕跡 是徒勞地 揮之難棄

金子般的心
不需要金子，因為我有豐富的心靈 兒時的夢想從沒有變老 不需要名聲，因為你知道我的名字 我們一起照的照片多漂亮啊
珍惜眼前的時光，享受流逝的歲月 悄悄地走過，讓腳印消失 珍惜眼前的時光，享受流逝的歲月 追趕不上那美好的旋律，讓它留下來
