The furry truth

We are hardly worthy
Yet we are so loved
They come to us and they stay
Miracle on a daily basis
As a matter of course
The moments, the memories,
A simple wish, a half-remembered dream
There is no because, only now and here
Do you move when they touch you
Do you die when they leave
Do you see a different light
When all is scattered to the winds
Perhaps they have answers
Perhaps questions no longer matter
Not really, when you see it's not enough, it'll never be
And yet we are given so much, already, always
That to lose is to keep
To yearn is to believe
In many a lifetime
Many possible worlds melt into one
You have been loved
More than you can ever hope
It is that easy and that difficult
Mystery on a first-name basis
As a matter of fact

守夜

啊這才發現最害怕的是遺忘
而且一開始根本搞錯方向
我以為我怕忘記你
怕照片會覆寫你的畫面
但原來我怕你忘記我
在你去的那個地方
還有你和我和記和忘嗎，我
不知道。我只是還留在這。我想
我無法還無法那麼瀟灑
即使是焦灼狼狽的我
疲憊混亂的我
即使不夠溫柔不夠細心不夠堅強
笨拙遲鈍又沒用的我
如果你記得
只要你記得
即使一點點也好
這願望如此自私渺小缺乏新意
因為愛就是自私渺小缺乏新意
就像這首詩充滿不可取的大白話，我
不在乎。我畢竟還留在這。我想了又想
在天亮起來之前
你在燈裡眼角門邊
我等待著什麼訊息
某個暗示或某則啟事
我數完了三百六十五
接著要數下一個三百六十六
也許只要我數得夠多夠少夠快或夠慢
就能終於來到開始和結束重疊的地方
你和我和所有
最透明最純粹的遺忘

貓夢

——寫給朋友

是夢吧

雖然我知道一切同時也確切發生過

如誰所知的相遇離別幸福和悲傷

某些時刻光的顏色和姿態

某個角落的氣味和溫度

或許我已經來過千百次

或者我們從來不認識

都好。都沒錯。都無所謂理論上——

但那是理論上——

現實是我做了夢

夢裡有你和我和我們的真實

平凡微小不值一提

可能再不能提起

然而再不會忘記

在每一個永遠之前

在每一個世界每一天

每一個我和你

都是初相見
