诗

【美】唐纳德·霍尔      陈子弘 译

它在夜里查出
它被白天藏起来的明悟。
有时它让自己化身为
一头动物。
长夏时它会独自
远足，每当野草地
从沟渠那里折返。
它也曾一动不动
站在一排安静的机器前。
谁人知道
它思虑若何？

原文：

The Poem

It discovers by night
what the day hid from it.
Sometimes it turns itself
into an animal.
In summer it takes long walks
by itself where meadows
fold back from ditches.
Once it stood still
in a quiet row of machines.
Who knows
what it is thinking?
