Afar – Prologue
快把星光盛进篮子,
按下宇宙的暂停键!
在无尽沉寂中,
等待下一个“顷刻”。无人歌颂时间,
他们只是在时间里歌唱。——也让我静止,
像一叠曝光的胶片,
你可尽情在画面之间涂抹。——也让我静止,
这样在下一个顷刻,
你就能尝试解开我心中的结。
它由无数时序的思绪交织而成,
人们已然称之为生命本身。——也让我静止,
这样可以提醒我哪怕形如短暂的,
一丝顾虑,
一份彷徨,
时光中崩解的沙质城堡,
也是不可回溯的远方,
无价的珍宝。Quickly gather starlight in a basket,
and press the Pause button of the Universe!
So, in endless stillness,
await the next “instant.”No one sings in praise of time;
one merely sings in it.— and now hold me still,
like a stack of film.
you can freely smudge between frames.— and now hold me still.
in the next instant,
try to unravel my soul.
weave countless threads of thought,
known readily as life itself.— and now hold me still,
this might remind me:
even threads of doubt,
and hesitation,
Castles of sand upon the passage of time,
Are places afar that no one returns to,
and priceless treasures.some historical cover art variants of this thingy.

Two Recent Poems
The Star Carver
They say you find a lively memory
of a world’s early ages
deep within.Shapes without colours
colours without shapes.
Endeavours without maps,
vision without eyes.To rejoin the silence was to speak;
to leave behind all lights was to see.Feel the pristine ground.
Touch the running water.
Does a fire burn afar?
Do you hear the shadows flicker?For all our ignorance,
— and wonder we hence pursuit —
is but a caveAnd someone carved out the gaps
through which starlight shone.(January 2022, Westport)
Togetherness
A memory.
A yearning.
A wish.A service.
A product.
A prompt for grandiose visions.
An entrance to elaborate fraud.A remnant of creation.
A backdrop of being.
A catalyst of love.A state.
A stage.
A taste.

Rainy Road Found Poem – 01
Rainy Road Found Poem (RRFP) is a series of mysterious texts that I find in the gutter on my way home from office.
Curiously, I am more likely to find more of them during rain or at midnight.
