〈神木〉

笑声

追踪洪荒的

一个闪电

穿过沉睡的黑森林

来到你的脚下

手拉着手

一群年青人

绕着你

想量你的腰围

却身不由己

越转越快

狂跳起

祭神之舞

THE DIVINE TREE

after penetrating the dark-sleep forest

the lightning of laughter

from the ancient world

finally arrives at your foot

holding hands and circling slowly

a group of young men

try to measure your girth

suddenly they become wild

turning faster and faster

in a ritual dance
