《伊尔米弟索语系》
夏宇
(行走在陌生的语言的边缘。
像一件试穿过的新娘礼服
突然失踪了在婚礼的
前一个晚上。)
突然想用一种完全不懂的语言
表达自己而且是深刻的表达并
用及所有偏僻危险的字眼好譬如就是
伊尔米弟索语系
他们也用伊尔米弟索语办报纸编纂
学童课本发行旅行指南发明填字游戏等等
我应该下定决心花10年时间懂得怎样
用伊尔米弟索语系示爱跟随公园种的
大提琴手回家用彼此的母语教对方
一些成语和绕口令
如果你会炖我的炖冻豆腐你就炖我的
炖冻豆腐如果你不会炖我的炖冻
豆腐你就不要
炖坏了我的炖冻豆腐――
豆腐 完全不可自拔的
豆腐且用草绳拴着――
再花10年的时间学会辩论 准确
而不经意地涉及各种生猛的字眼
如同某些蟹类
无法藏匿?们的螯
又花10年可以写诗了当滑腻的
音节逼近喉咙通过舌尖
引发出纯粹感官感官感官 的
愉悦(发现对字的肉欲的爱)：
搜索寻觅 使用
一切昵称 掷笔 微笑
叹息 为了那人性中还未曾被
任何语系穿透的部分
即使是已如此亲爱
如此娴熟的
伊尔米弟索语
Yamidiso Language Family
(Walking on the margins of a strange language
like a wedding dress that had been tried on
suddenly disappearing on the eve
of the wedding)
Suddenly I’d like to use a language I don’t understand at all
to express myself furthermore it’s a profound expression and also
useful for any obscure and dangerous terminology for example
there’s
the Yarmidiso language family
They also use Yarmidisoese for editing newspapers compiling
children’s textbooks publishing travel guidebooks making up
crossword puzzles
etc., etc.
I must commit to spend ten years’ time to understand how
to use Yarmidisoese to express affection, following the cellist
in the park home, each one using his or her mother tongue to
teach the other
some common sayings and tongue-twisters
If you can steam my cold-steamed bean curd then steam my
cold steamed bean curd if you can’t steam my cold steamed
bean curd then don’t
oversteam my cold steamed bean curd―
Bean curd the incorrigible bean curd
tied with a straw rope―
Spend another ten years’ time learning how to debate with precision
and without effort, insert all manner of unexpected terminology
like certain kinds of crustaceans
that can’t conceal their claws
Spend yet another ten years and then be able to write poetry &
when oleaginous
syllables press near my throat pass over the tip of my tongue
producing a pure sensory sensory sensory
joy (discover the carnal love of words):
exploring searching to use
every endearment throw away the pen smile
sigh for the part of human nature that still hasn’t been
penetrated by any language
even this beloved
this polished and refined
Yarmidisoese
(Andrea Lingenfelter 译)
