各种人
修补时间的人
拨弄分秒的指针
大大小小的人
难以辨别的分身
寻找时间的人
隐去真实的身份
岁月于他无痕
只是转动的齿轮
向漩涡底部下沉
再下沉
边缘不断拉伸
再拉伸
擦肩而过的人
交换眼神的人
自言自语的人
不能入睡的人
颠倒黑白的人
患得患失的人
切断光线的人
进入梦境的人
抹去回忆的人
种植希望的人
紧紧相拥的人
亲吻双唇的人
已经离开的人
正在老去的人
逃避现实的人
被时间忘却的人
ENGLISH
The man who fixes the time
Fiddles with the hands of the clock
Big and small men
Indistinguishable from each other
The man who is looking for time
Identity hidden
Days and years passed
To him, time is just some large gears turning small ones
Sinking to the bottom
Deeper and deeper
Stretching the space
Wilder and wilder
He passed me
Exchanged a look with her
She started murmuring:
People can not sleep
Day and night, black and white upside down
What they have in hands
All from what they have been lost
Someone will come and cut the light
And go into your dream
And clean your memories
The tree man
Who you love to hold in bed
Go kiss his lips
Then leave.
Many many years later
I still remember her whisper
