〈俄罗斯印象〉

非马

1

喝地一声

齐齐向天托起

一个个富丽堂皇的穹顶

仰望的眼睛

突然润湿模糊了起来

当腥味的血汗

自无数双青筋暴胀的手

穿越明明暗暗的年代

骤雨般飞溅过来

2

才没几天的功夫

他便已习惯於

高大的俄罗斯帝国梦—

粗壮的石柱

高耸的穹顶

富丽堂皇的教堂

更富丽堂皇的皇宫

最大的炮最洪的钟最高的塑像

还有他下榻的五星级酒店里

那难以跨入的浴缸

脚不着地的马桶

是的

是该死的美国马桶

让他一下子跌回了

现实

Russian Impressions

by William Marr

1

Hoisted to the sky

the magnificent domes

Winter palaces summer palaces

big palaces small palaces

My upward-looking eyes

suddenly become blurred

as drops of sweat and blood

flying through the dim air of history

splatter my face

2

It took only a few days

for him to get used to the grandiose dreams

of Imperial Russia—

the imposing columns

the onion domes

the magnificent churches

the even more magnificent palaces

the biggest cannon the heaviest bell the tallest statue

and in the five-star hotel

the insurmountable bathtub

the elevated toilet...

In fact it was the homely American toilet

that plunged him back

to earth
