张烨 《沙漠落日》

砰然一声
撞碎了天边的玻璃栅栏
一头红豹从蓝色囚笼逃脱

自由的足音翻越一个个沙丘
红豹追逐雪白的流沙狂奔欢叫
直至筋疲力尽

不知过了多久它睡着了
一只黑色的巨掌
从天际伸展过来抓起红豹
像拾起一粒红豆
轻捷、娴熟不著一丝痕迹

Desert Sunset
Zhang Ye

A thump
Shattered the horizon’s glass paling
And a red leopard escaped from the blue pen
Free footfalls cleared the dunes
The red leopard raced exulting over the
Snow-white shifting sands
Until it slept exhausted when some time had passed
And a great black paw
Reached out from the sky’s edge and grasped it
Like a red bean
Nimbly, skillfully, leaving no scar
