--今天,“Globalization and Asian Societies" 的課上學生討論挺投入的, 主要是關於一係列的global issues such as globalization vs. localization, climate change, global warming, development and world poverty (relative vs absolute), erosion of the earth, population and ecology, technological engineering and the future of human societies.... 下課後,一位年紀較大, 經曆過不少艱辛的學生特地走上來告訴我:"I read your poems and particularlly love the one "Retreat," which gives hope to someone like me!" 聽了她的話,我也有些感動,覺得這些詩沒有白寫。現將此詩重貼如下,作為紀念。 浮生飄絮58: 退路 (Shanjing) You and me, Face to face, Walking backwards, Further and furhter Until it's an ocean away. The vaster the ocean, The shorter the distance Between you and me Back to back, As the Earth is round. 2010. 4.3. | |||
