英语翻译
I ask them to take a poem
and hold it up to the light
like a color slide
or press an ear against its hive.
I say drop a mouse into a poem
and watch him probe his way out,
or walk inside the poem’s room
and feel the walls for a light switch.
I want them to waterski
across the surface of a poem
waving at the author’s name on the shore.
But all they want to do
is tie the poem to a chair with rope
and torture a confession out of it.
They begin beating it with a hose
to find out what it really means.

我让他们拿起一首诗
对着灯把它举起
像举彩色幻灯片一样
或者把一只耳朵贴在它的巢上.
我说丢只老鼠到一首诗里
看它如何摸出来,
或者在诗的房子里走动
摸墙上的灯闸.
我想要他们乘水橇
滑过一首诗的外面
冲着岸上作者的姓名挥手请安.
可他们只想
拿绳索将诗捆在椅子上
给它来个屈打成招.
他们开始用软管抽它
想弄清它的真正含义.
