《悼天星》

《悼天星》

十一月十一日,香港舊天星碼頭臨別夜,謹以此藏頭拙詩悼念

天夜子時串星淚
馬群帶鬱垂頭嘆
永留半世說別難
再結良朋卻見僈

僈:怠惰。荀子˙不苟:「君子寬而不僈。」

告別,天星碼頭

剛剛上雅虎新聞一看,原來天星碼頭要清拆……

心中忽然有點傷感起來……

回想在港時,每一次到尖沙咀,我也不乘坐地鐵,硬要坐車到中環天星碼頭,坐船過對岸。

雖然不是照相發燒友,但每一次總要把它照下來,才能舒懷。

碼頭那在水中帶點腐朽的木柱、船上那迎面而心曠神怡的海風、泊岸時水手們專業熟練的舉動……

無不懷緬。

各式人們來往的碼頭入口、天星渡輪泊岸情景、船內一繩一椅、船外一景一物……

如何抗拒?

可惜在香港,值得懷念卻不被保護的東西太多了……

在香港,談的只有商業價值;沒有商業價值,有多味道和懷念也能活在發黃的頁片上。

雖然港府說只是把天星碼頭搬移,但它給我的感覺有如一個空殼,沒有蘊釀了半個世紀的靈魂。

香港,值得我喜歡的東西又少了一樣……

The Test Has Begun

Fight Test by Flaming Lips

I thought I was smart
I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight
I thought there was a virtue, in always being cool

So it came time to fight
I thought "I'll just step aside"
And that the time will prove you wrong
And that you would be a fool

I don't know where the sunbeams end
And the starlight begins
It's all a mystery

Oh. To fight is to defend
If it's not now then tell me when
Would be the time
That you would stand up and be a man
For to lose I could accept
But to surrender I just wept
And regretted this moment
oh that
I was the fool

I don't know where the sunbeams end
And the starlight begins
It's all a mystery

And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery

'Cause I'm a man, not a boy
And there are things you can't avoid
You have to face them
When you're not prepared to face them
If I could I would
But you're with him, now it'd do no good
I should've fought him
But instead I let him
I let him take it

私は現在、あなたを必要とします,由釋美……
