Wake up surprised
by my nudity.
Fish is a symbol for sex,
a specialist explains;
she offers a miserable look.
Distressed, I remember
removing all belongings
before bed.
Lying beside my lover,
quiet and gleaming,
my lover is a river.
Yet in my dreams,
there is only one fish,
no river, no water.
我常梦见鱼
醒来却惊异
自己的赤裸。
鱼是性的一种象征，
专家如是说;
神色中透着些古怪。
犹疑不安着，我记得
睡前卸下了所有行装。
躺在爱人的身旁，
宁静并熠熠闪光，
我的爱人是月下的河床。
只是，在我的梦里，
没有河流，也没有水。
只有一尾发光的鱼。
