The Man Who Walks Too Fast

走得太快的人

走得太快的人
有时会走到自己前面去
他的脸庞会模糊
速度给它掺进了
幻觉和未来的颜色

同样,走得太慢的人 
有时会掉到自己身后 
他不过是自己的阴影
有裂缝的过去
甚至,是自己一直 
试图偷偷扔掉的垃圾 

坐在树下的人
也不一定刚好是他自己
有时他坐在自己的左边  
有时坐在自己的右边 
幸好总的来说 
他都坐在自己的附近

The Man Who Walks Too Fast

The man who walks too fast
sometimes passes himself
His face becomes obscure  
Speed is interwoven with 
illusions and the color of future

Similarly, the man who walks too slowly
sometimes lags behind himself
He is just his own shadow
Even the past with crevices
becomes the junk 
which he always wants to secretly throw away

The man sitting under the shade of a tree
is not always himself
Sometimes he sits to the left of himself
Sometimes he sits to the right of himself 
Fortunately
he always sits not too far from himself
