木头缝 廖江泉
木头裂了一个缝，或者说
时间在木头身上用力，留下了一个缝
但木头不知道，这会改变它的用途
我是说，它的可塑性
越来越小
就像那个爱已经破裂的人
他沉默着，让光照了进来
并在这坚硬的世界，悄然转身
他多么不屑，那所谓的
事物的完整性
A Crack in the Wood
by Liao Jiangquan
There is a crack in the wood, or, some may say,
time has worked on it, leaving a fissure in it,
although the wood is oblivious. This will change its usefulness—
I mean, its malleability
has become more and more limited.
Like someone whose love is fractured,
he stays quiet, bathing in the light,
and turning away from a stoney world.
How disdainful he is towards the so-called
unblemished goods.
廖江泉，仡佬族，贵州道真人，习诗多年，著有诗集《天亮了》。
