芦花荡
陵 邪
走下徐缓的斜坡。
芦花荡，一群泅水的野鸭
折叠在湖面。空气微醺，
天色已贴近你新鲜的橘色裙摆。
在枝头，两枚桑葚如微薄的唇瓣
泛着低烧。山风越走越近，
一棵歪脖树垂下身姿，倚吻湖光。
我也试图用这样的方式接近你。
须臾间，我们的目光被高空的纸鸢
牵扯，直至落霞在远山的眉黛
轻描淡写地纹上一笔，四野阒然。
两个疲惫的侧影，在傍晚彼此相对。
一直无从得知车轨的去向，铁质
的音律似乎潜藏某种情绪，拒人千里。
小雨过后，空气带着电流的回温。
你哈出一口冷气，薄雾晾成露水。
这纷扰纠缠的时令，将旧伤口
不断豁开，注入人间的新生。

The Cattail Shallow
by Ling Xie
Going down the gentle slope.
In a cattail shallow, a flock of diving ducks
overlie the lake. The air feels slightly intoxicating.
The sky hangs down, almost touching your bright orange skirt.
On the tip of a twig, two mulberries flush
like delicate lips. The mountain wind is pushing in.
A crooked-neck tree bends over to kiss the lake’s reflection.
I try to do the same to you.
Soon, our gaze is tugged by a kite
high in the sky until sunset graces the mountain brow
with a touch of blackish brown, then all is quiet.
At dusk, two worn silhouettes stand before each other.
The rail tracks, going who-knows-where, has a metallic pulse
with some kind of murmur, always keep to themselves.
After a light rain, the electrified atmosphere warms up.
You puff into the cold air, mist turns to dew.
This bestirring season opens the old wounds
wide and wider, and injects a new vitality to the interlaced world.

陵邪，在校学生，喜爱文字，作品散见于《青春诗刊》。闲暇无聊时写些胡思乱想，生活随风，始之于诗。
