Waiting for a pizza in a bar, with so many adverbs




Waiting for a pizza in a bar, with so many adverbs
      To Rich Vine

This bar is a little middle east-ish, and yet
You do not need a turban. Then,
Let's divide and taste this half-table candlelight. Duly,
Your index finger cuts out an island around my thumb. Now,
We will have to look for each other over an expanse of water, and even
We can only hear the waves washing at moonrise. Therefore,
Your tears suddenly well up, as if obviously
We have already walked thousands of rivers and mountains. But
Where is the source of the music we hear? Isn't it
The Persian ney and desert we hear?

  在一个小酒吧等待披萨上桌,那么多副词

这酒吧氛围有点中东,但是
你还不需要盖头,那么
我们先分掉这半桌烛光吧!于是
你用食指绕着我的拇指切出一个孤岛,因此
我们要夜夜隔水相望了,甚至
我们只能在月升时听着浪声了,所以
你突然泪如泉涌,似乎而又显然
我们已经千山万水,然而
那音源在哪儿呢?难道
我们听见的不是波斯笛和沙漠?
