非馬漢英雙語詩〈没有脉膊的人〉刊登於《芝加哥時報》2025.9.5

 

 

 

〈没有脉膊的人〉

 

 

 

洶湧衝擊的波浪

 

終於成了

 

涓

 

涓

 

細

 

流

 

日夜繞著一塊頑石

 

洗刷安撫

 

 

 

臉不紅

 

 

心不跳

 

 

 

*幾年前，曾助成伊拉克戰爭的前副總統迪克·切尼的胸腔內被植入了一個心臟泵，取代心臟的功能，但沒有脈搏。

 

 

 

A MAN WITH NO PULSE

 

 

 

crashing waves

 

now become

 

a steady stream

 

winding around a rock

 

day and night

 

polishing and pacifying

 

 

 

no more pounding

 

 

no more blushing

 

 

 

*Several years ago,  a heart pump was implanted in the chest of former Vice President Dick Cheney who played a big role in launching a war against Iraq. The pump was supposed to take over the function of the heart, but produce no pulse.
