《萬物都有兩個終點》 by 簡·赫希菲爾德

萬物都有兩個終點   林木譯

—— 簡·赫希菲爾德

 

每件事物都有兩個終點——

一匹馬，一根繩子，一通電話。

 

在生命之前，空氣。

接著在之後。

 

正如寂靜並非寂靜，而是聽覺的極限。

 

Everything Has Two Endings

Jane Hirshfield

 

Everything has two endings—

a horse, a piece of string, a phone call.

 

Before a life, air.

And after.

 

As silence is not silence, but a limit of hearing.
