The Flower

The Flower

Robert Creeley
I think I grow tensions
like flowers
in a wood where
nobody goes.
Each wound is perfect,
encloses itself in a tiny
imperceptible blossom,
making pain.
Pain is a flower like that one,
like this one,
like that one,
like this one.

花
[美]罗伯特•克瑞利
我想我内孕着张力
犹如花儿
在无人经过的林中。
每个伤口都很完美，
将自己封存于
一朵幽隐难察的盛开中，
制造痛楚。
痛楚就是一朵花，                        

像那朵，
像这朵，
像那朵，
像这朵。
