Fan Jinghua: Loneliness

  Loneliness
The wall of pinup eyes encroaches, outflanks,
A felled forest of arms
Shrouded with impenetrable invisibility.

He shields his head with a jersey—

The door leafs cannot grip properly behind him.
But the opening has allowed him to pass,
And the wall stops and crumbles before the cave.

He walks toward a huge emptiness.

  孤独

无数只眼睛的张贴画,墙似地
包抄、逼近,伐倒的手臂森林
覆盖着无法戳通的透明。

他用厚厚的运动衫蒙着头——

门扇在他身后无法咬合。
缝隙容他只身穿过,
但将那面弧形的墙堵在洞穴前。

他走去了,向着一片巨大的空。
