没有感情――给情人
      
          慢慢地,紧张地像一位老农
      
          在纽约市大街上
      
          第一次行走
      
          或像一个醉汉
      
          错闯进
      
          艺术馆里
      
          我游荡在商场里
      
          所有心形状的东西
      
          都没有心
      
          所有红的和粉的爱诗
      
          都没有爱的行动
      
          灯光躺倒,平得像
      
          一张张退税表格
      
          格断的场地
      
          固定的字母和数字
      
          人们
      
          象数字一样慢慢爬行
      
          象是痛苦地
      
          用小心算出的数字,小数点和零
      
          为情人节
      
          来填税表
      
          购物,定义为:
      
          绿色的,有总统头像的
      
          难弄到(或容易得到的)
      
          诚实的或不诚实得来的,
      
          10公分乘19公分平整的
      
          页页印出特殊的纸
      
          用来交换
      
          红的,粉的,紫色的
      
          纸的或塑料的
      
          金色的或银色的
      
          钻石形状的或花式的
      
      
      
          所有便宜的或昂贵的
      
          用利润加了成本
      
          再加百分之六销售税度量过的
      
          为了那我们具有的或不具有的
      
          那一种情感
      
          突然我头旋眼转
      
          腹肚空空的
      
          脑一片空白
      
          就像鸡蛋被抽了蛋清和蛋黄
      
          一个壳在走
      
          我走出商场
      
          进了新鲜空气
      
          和二月的冰雨
      
          我站了
      
          购物后,两手空空
      
          没有了感情
      
          No Feeling  —to my valentine 
      
          Slowly, nervously, like 
      
          An old farmer walking on the street 
      
          Of New York City 
      
          For the first time 
      
          Or a drunk walking 
      
          Into the art museum 
      
          By mistake 
      
          I am wondering in the mall 
      
          Everywhere heart shaped 
      
          Things with no heart 
      
          Every love verses, red or pink colored 
      
          Without the meaning of love 
      
          Lights are lying flat 
      
          As sheets of tax forms 
      
          Constant divided squares 
      
          Fixed letters and numbers 
      
          People
      
          Crawling slowly as figures painfully 
      
          Filling the tax return 
      
          With cautiously calculated numbers 
      
          Points and zeros 
      
          For valentine 
      
          Shopping defined as 
      
          Green colored, president pictured 
      
          Hard or easy to get 
      
          Honest or dishonest 
      
          10cm by 19 cm flat 
      
          Sheets of printed paper 
      
          In exchange of 
      
          Red, pink or purple colored 
      
          Plastic or paper 
      
          Gold or silver 
      
          Diamond or texture 
      
          Everything cheap or expensive 
      
          Well measured by adding profit to the cost plus 
      
          Six per cent of sales tax 
      
          For feelings we do 
      
          Or do not have 
      
          Suddenly my head spinning 
      
          Empty stomached 
      
          Blank minded 
      
          As if my brain was drained like 
      
          An egg without white and yolk 
      
          Only a shell 
      
          Walking out of the mall 
      
          Into fresh air and 
      
          February icy rain 
      
          I stand, empty handed 
      
          After shopping 
      
          Without feeling
