    都是早期作品了。高二的。第一首《秘密花园》。
    The Secret Garden         
    by:小鱼
    Standing in front of the garden gate, we wonder:
    Who are we?
    Other than a crowd of mournful optimists,
    Submerged in deafening silence
    Of our every minor crisis?
    The frequent return of melancholy triumphs over our smiles,
    Replaces happiness with
    Mass misery.
    So someone created this secret garden,
    Where syllables and words twirl freely under the silvery moonlight—
    A tango or ballet according to their mood.
    In this concealed, primordial space,
    We spill blue ink along with our hearts
    Onto every surface imaginable.
    We make the strange familiar;
    The familiar strange.
    We disregard existing creeds
    To conjure up our own faith.
    When light melts into darkness,
    A soul screams for recognition.
    And there is its counterpart, smiling and gently
    Responding to the call.

      第二首《救赎》。
      Extrication
      by: 小鱼
      You taste the heavy color of metallic silver
      on the tip of my tongue.
      Unlike others who shy away from me
      You sow the seed of courage
      by carving love into my thumping heart.
      Alas, you say.
      I want to give it a touch of spicy flavor—happiness maybe?
      I nodded as tears broke free
      In delicate silence,
      For you promised to carry on your shoulders my universe
      In its entirety.
      I, the needy Princess of your Kingdom,
      dressed in the softest sari,
      tiptoe into the sacred shrine
      and pray for our encounter in reincarnation.
      For you are my savior;
      the only god I desire.

        第三首《游戏人生》。还得了个三等奖哈哈。
        The Game
        by: 小鱼
        A game with half of the puzzle pieces gone
        Brims the player of despair,
        Slithering down his throat like a poisonous snake.
        The player, trapped and cornered,
        Puts on a fight
        But to no avail,
        For his soul is enchained to
        The missing puzzle pieces.
        So to revive as a warrior of earthly life,
        He must adopt
        The intricate art of oblivion.

          下面的诗看起来要顺眼些了。稍微近期点的。第一首《猜谜》。
          A Riddle      by: 小鱼
          She wraps her fingers around the profound blueness.
          Golden flakes plant on it
          A gentle kiss.
          The twang is hidden
          Behind the veil.
          Her long eyelashes bat slightly,
          As a butterfly flutters its wings.
          Mystifying power, unspoken beauty, intense panic.
          It’s a piece of rock in hand.
          Teardrop personified.
          (谜底:青金石)

            第二首:《迷宫》。
            Labyrinth   by: 小鱼      
            Entrapped in a double-walled sac,
            He wonders around and around.
            Layers, lining, and the pumping sound.
            Solid ventricle, fragile chamber, elastic valves.
            No exit to be found.

              第三首:《梭哈》。
              ShowHand        by:小鱼
              A magician, a mind-reader, an invincible king.
              He checks, calls and raises.
              The bottom deal is ace of spade.
              His heart bleeds diamonds, as hysteria erupts
              In a club filled with clowns.

                最后一首算最精辟的:《娘子》。灵感来源是林语堂的《京华烟云》。
                The Chinese Bride    
                by: 小鱼
                The headpiece weighs heavily,
                An overcrowded sea of plump pearls and scarlet tassels
                Rimmed by the embroidery of blue threads like waves.
                First bow to the Heaven and Earth.
                She bends under the familiar weight.
                Second bow to parents and in-laws.
                Her neck feels sour.
                Third bow to each other.
                She turns to her side,
                Bowing towards the thin air.

                      最开始时最求华丽辞藻,你还是先从后面的倒着看吧。真正的好诗,是平淡出真知啊。

                          呃,广播的,朗诵的亲们:很感谢你们看得起我的诗,但是有种东西叫版权,随便拿出去广播不太好吧,这样子谁还敢把新作贴上来。我以为大家都是贴诗以供收藏、分享的……
