Plath: Eavesdropper

Sylvia Plath Collected Poems

No. 212

  Eavesdropper

Your brother will trim my hedges!
They darken your house,
Nosy grower,
Mole on my shoulder,
To be scratched absently,
To bleed, if it comes to that.
The stain of the tropics
Still urinous on you, a sin.
A kind of bush-stink.

You may be local,
But that yellow!
Godawful!
Your body one
Long nicotine-finger
On which I,
White cigarette,
Burn, for your inhalation,
Driving the dull cells wild.

Let me roost in you!
My distractions, my pallors.
Let them start the queer alchemy
That melts the skin
Gray tallow, from bone and bone.
So I saw your much sicker
Predecessor wrapped up,
A six and a half foot wedding-cake.
And he was not even malicious.

Do not think I don't notice your curtain---
Midnight, four o'clock,
Lit (you are reading),
Tarting with the drafts that pass,
Little whore tongue,
Chenille beckoner,
Beckoning my words in---
The zoo yowl, the mad soft
Mirror talk you love to catch me at.

How you jumped when I jumped on you!
Arms folded, ear cocked,
Toad-yellow under the drop
That would not, would not drop
In a desert of cow people
Trundling their udders home
To the electric milker, the wifey, the big blue eye
That watches, like God, or the sky
The ciphers that watch it.

I called.
You crawled out,
A weather figure, boggling,
Belge troll, the low
Church smile
Spreading itself, like butter.
This is what I am in for---
Flea body!
Eyes like mice

Flicking over my property,
Levering letter flaps,
Scrutinizing the fly
Of the man's pants
Dead on the chair back,
Opening the fat smiles, the eyes
Of two babies
Just to make sure---
Toad-stone! Sister-bitch! Sweet neighbor!
       15 October 1962, 31 December 1962


普拉斯《诗全编》
第212首

   隔墙耳
       希薇娅- 普拉斯
你兄弟决意要修剪我的树篱!
它们遮了你家房子的光,
越长越多事,
我肩头的黑痣,
心不在焉地抓抓,
抓准了,就要流血。
回归线上的污点
尿臭味仍沾在你身上,罪孽。
灌木丛的那种腐臭。

你可能是当地人,
看那黄色!
真难看!
你那身肉,一根
尼古丁的细手指,
我,一根白烟卷,
在那儿,
为给你吸而燃烧,
迟钝的细胞被逼发狂。

让我栖在你体内!
令我分心的、令我苍白的一切。
让它们启动怪异的炼金术
将皮肤的
灰白油脂熔掉,骨头一根根地化。
所以我看到你的前任病得更重,
从头裹到了脚,
一块六呎五吋的结婚蛋糕。
而他竟然没有一点恶意。

别以为我没注意到你的窗帘——
半夜、四点,
亮着灯(你还在看书),
用差强人意的草稿修饰,
小娼妇的舌头,
这硬毛绒引诱者
将我的话勾引了进去——
动物园的狂吼,软绵绵的
镜中的疯话,你最想逮到我这么说。

我扑向你时你跳得多高啊!
叉起膀子,竖着耳朵,
癞蛤蟆的黄色
不会从垂帘下垂落,不会垂落
到一座大沙漠般的奶牛人
身上,她们拖着大奶子回家,
走向电子挤奶器、走向保姆老婆、走向那只蓝色的
目不转睛的注视,像上帝,或说是天空,
那守望它的各种密码。

我唤一声。
你就爬了出来,
风向标的小人,左右摇摆,
比利时旋舞,低沉的
教堂式微笑
像牛油一样越摊越开。
我就活该如此——
跳蚤的身体!
眼睛像老鼠

在我的地盘上闪忽,
撬开信封的翻舌,
抓起椅背上
那条僵死的
男装裤,踏勘
那裆前的钮扣盖,
掰开肥硕的笑容,两个
小孩儿的眼睛,
只是为了确认——
蟾蜍石!泼妇姐妹!好心的邻居!
