默

余光之瞳


你靠近大海，心悬在崖边
风起，众多渔船下帆
不要停留太久，夜深海浪就能回家
月色上山，大海不停喘息
天空还有一线生机


Silence

By Yuguang Zhitong


You draw near the sea, and your heart hangs by the edge of the cliff
The wind rising, fishing boats lower their sails
Don’t linger too long. Waves will find their way home at late night
The moon climbs up the mountain, the sea keeps gasping for breath
The sky still has a thread of life

与己书

小小


老牛的脑袋突然往墙上撞
我拉紧绳索拽也拽不住

只怪我，刚才不能自已
对着它说了那么多烦心事


A Letter to Myself

By Xiaoxiao


The old ox suddenly hits the wall with its head
I pull the rope tight but can’t hold it back

It’s all my fault. I couldn’t control myself just now
And confided so many troubles to it

青苔

白芷


幽寂处，汹涌地翠绿着
忘却匍匐
忘却非草非木


Moss

By Baizhi


In the secluded place, the lush greenery surges forth
Forgetting crawling
Forgetting it’s neither grass nor tree

雨量计

刘卫玲


沙漠将空杯举向星群
仙人掌竖起刻度表
一只蜥蜴数着云朵坠落的秒数
直到月光把它的尾巴
浇灌成绿色量筒


Rain Gauge

By Liu Weiling


The desert raises its empty cup to the stars
The cactus erects its scale
A lizard counts the seconds for the clouds to fall
Until the moonlight waters its tail
And turns it into a green measuring cylinder

日子

晴川历历


日历，将岁月沉淀
一半光阴
附着给夜色
剩下的
将所有悬念打乱


Days

By Qingchuan Lili


The calendar precipitates time and tide
Half of the time
Attached to the night
The rest
Disrupting all suspense

经营范围

兰轩


她欲求得安睡之法
摊主拂过卦签：莫问虚妄
求财向左，平安向右
您这失眠症……
算什么正经事


Business Scope

By Lanxuan


She seeks a way to sleep soundly
The vendor sweeps the divination stick: don’t ask about falsehood
Seek wealth on the left and peace on the right
Your insomnia...
What kind of serious matter is it?

遮阳帽

春寒


爸妈，工地上没有高温补贴
叮嘱买的遮阳帽，从网上买了
您们的大孙子，每天上学路上都戴着它
特别高兴


Sun Hat

By Chunhan


Mom, Dad, we have no high-temperature subsidy on the construction site
The sun hat you told me to buy, I’ve bought online
Your eldest grandson wears it to school every day
Particularly happy

思乡

冰夏


天空是一张纸
月亮是我擦破的一个洞

那时我写了一个“爱”
太直白，我不停地擦呀擦
纸张黑了，破了
家人总奇怪我年年交了张破卷子


Homesickness

By Bingxia


The sky is a sheet of paper
The moon is a hole I rubbed through

Back then, I wrote a “love”
It’s too straightforward. I kept erasing
The paper turned black and broken
My family always wondered why I handed in a broken test paper year after year

铅中毒

高书全


用斑斓颜料垂钓童真
铅的浮标，凿开带血漏洞
无数人日夜缝补

鱼钩撕裂的，仅是水面微澜
暗流裹挟毒素，席卷天空


Lead Poisoning

By Gao Shuquan


Fishing for childhood innocence with colorful paints
A lead buoy, chisels through a blood-stained hole
Countless hands sew and mend day and night

The fishhook tears only slight ripples on the surface
The undercurrent, carrying toxins, sweeps across the sky
