這杯咖啡 湯姆·阿慈言答 詩作/滴滴 翻譯 如果有一首詩想溜進這杯咖啡 清晨將在我舌上寫起歌來 我也許擡眼看看燃燒的地平線 捕捉正要登上舞臺的一隻飛鷹或鴿子 一個短句可能宣告適當的長度 或根本一點也不合用 每一行都可能拒絕服從、睡回籠覺去 在詩人的試筆下，毫無內疚與恐懼 唉，昨日咖啡難再入口，字詞卻不 相信想法可以變酸或只是消失 留下迷途且離奇的老歌，思索著 微塵般的詞語出於現代人的舌頭 聽來是如何古老又易碎啊 這一切還有太多可問，太多可說 對週六上午的一杯咖啡和一首詩 莫任其留在濕水槽底 也別一口也不啜飲那秋日之杯 而未宣揚，沒表達，摧不毀的 在想像力的音樂廳中 至少有那種平和 是永遠無法言說或立下文字的 它們可恣意呀 來回跳彈 在一個詩漾清晨的自由空間 按：長年旅居泰國的美國詩人湯姆·阿慈言答（Tom Radzienda），目前在清邁從事靈氣導師的身心靈工作。筆者擁有作者所有詩集之中文翻譯授權。本詩譯自其2005年出版的「火夢集」（Fire Dreams)。 This Cup of Coffee If a poem were to slip into this cup of coffee Morning would write the lyrics on my tongue I might lift my eyes above the burning horizon To catch a hawk or dove in the planning stage A phrase might announce itself to be of proper length Or claim on the contrary to not be fitting at all Each line might refuse to obey and slip back to sleep Without guilt or fear beneath the poets approaching pen Alas, coffee goes stale, but words do not Believe thoughts can sour or just go away Leaving stray, strange oldies to ponder the dust Of words gone ancient and brittle to modern tongues All this is too much to ask, too much to say Of a Saturday morning cup of coffee and a poem No better off in the soggy grounds in the sink Nor left unsipped in the autumn cup But unadvertised, unverbalized, unbreakable In the concert halls of the imagination Where at least there is peace of the sort That never gets spoken nor written But wantonly bounces around In the free space of a poetic morning by Tom Radzienda ISBN9749244788 (ISBN13: 9789749244784)
