[一九八四的觀點]
--Maura Dooley (1957- ), 羅浩原 譯
破壞。礦渣，被堆得像沙丘
沿著鐵道一路延伸到海邊
那邊的煤炭，被沖上沙灘，
英俊又幹練，被檢選出來
為漫長的冬天帶來一點點溫暖。
熔化。隆隆運轉的礦藏，運到日本
去製造汽車。熔化。骯髒模糊的時候
你分不清是誰在動：它們或我們。
此刻我思索著煤炭，但我所能看到的並不是
故事的始末而只是窺伺著某些珍貴的事情
從縫隙間進入地底，一條銀黑色的小徑
在消失之際閃爍了一下。這才是重點。
[The 1984 Perspective]
--Maura Dooley (1957- )
Spoil. Slag, packed like sand dunes
all the way down the line to the coast
where coal, washed up on the beach,
handsome and useful, is scavenged
for a little warmth in a long winter.
Meltdown. Rolling stock, gone to Japan
for cars. Meltdown. The blur when
you can’t tell who is moving: them or us.
I think of it now and what I see is not
the whole story but the seam of something
precious gone underground, a darkly silver trail
glistening as it vanishes. That’s the point.
