BUTTERSAND

The orange light reflected by the raindrops out of reach of the wipers
够不着手帕去擦拭的雨滴折射出橙橘光线
Looks like twinkling illumination in a dark room
就像暗黑房间里闪烁的彩灯
Music from the stereo is
从立体音箱流出的音乐
Right the kind you would expect for such scene
正好符合眼前这个画面
Red lamps and the slow slope in front of my eyes
微红光线和眼前慢慢倾斜
Make me feel tired rather than sappy
让我感觉疲惫而不是精力充沛
I am surprisingly sober
刹那间我清醒过来
Yesterday morning I left half of the butter sandwich on the table and went out

A clever but tricky way to cover the pent on the white wall

The laundry has piled up in the washing machine

She may go to the launder later

That white room with little stuff in

Is covered with laundry still warm

Maybe she's reading that old novel I left there

Careful not to remove the bookmark I put in
小心翼翼地不弄掉我夹着的书签
And if failed to finish it tonight
如果不能一晚上看完这本书
Maybe she's never going to open it again
可能她再也不会看它了
Just like an unfinished script
就像未完成的脚本
In which the characters, Instead of living on till infinity
里边的角色不是一直活到地老天荒
Are frozen in the world made of watermelon candy
而是冻在了一个由西瓜糖果构成的世界里
Realizing that the cars behind me are getting closer

I stopped wondering and focused back on the road

Sipped some cold coffee and

Decided to get a warm drink

Looking at the shop signs
