巨大的事物

《巨大的事物》

文/双一

白云底下，道路与村庄那么微小

三万尺高的舷窗后，我发现

丈量巨大的事物，需要攀升至一定高度

这使得我，走在村庄之间的道路上

总被路边低矮的野草丛吸引，想

像一只蚁一样钻进去

在高大宽敞的缝隙间奔跑

The Giant Things

By Jacob Yang

Under the clouds, the roads and villages are so small

When I look at them from thirty thousand feet above

Behind the airplane window, I realize

In order to measure giant things

You need to climb up to a certain altitude

This makes me attracted to the lowly wild grass

On the side of the road between villages

Each time I walk along the road

I wish to dive into the grass like a small ant

To run between the gaps of their huge branches
