鸟 群牧 北
有人说起鸟群，就像谈着
远年的伤疤，鲜艳。
好像春天也能成为性格，好像
所有的情节都与时间
情同莫逆。鸟群曾经栖息的树林，
树林曾经的茂密，茂密曾经占据的
空间……语言成为一只豢养多年的宠物
摇头摆尾地化作想象、幻觉
冲出时间的界限。仿佛
鸟群仍盘桓在树林存在过的地方
A Flock of Birds
by Mu Bei
Someone is talking about a flock of birds, describing it as if
it’s an old scar, still tender and fresh.
He describes springtime as if it’s a personality, as if
every scenario in life is inseparable
from a season and time. The woods where the birds once perched,
the lushness that characterized the woods, the space that was satiated
with lushness…It’s as if vocabulary is his beloved old pet,
strutting by and turning into a fantasy or illusion,
breaking free from the cage of time. It is as if
the flock of birds is still circling around, over where the forest used to be.
