Sentimental Education
by Mary Ruefle
Ann Galbraith
loves Barry Soyers.
Please pray for Lucius Fenn
who suffers greatly whilst shaking hands.
Bonny Polton
loves a pug named Cowl.
Please pray for Olina Korsk
who holds the record for missing fingers.
Leon Bendrix loves Odelia Jonson
who loves Kurt who loves Carlos who loves Paul.
Please pray for Cortland Filby
who handles a dead wasp, a conceit for his mother.
Harold loves looking at Londa's hair under the microscope.
Londa loves plaiting the mane of her pony.
Please pray for Fancy Dancer
who is troubled by the vibrissa in his nostrils.
Nadine St. Clair loves Ogden Smythe
who loves blowing his nose on postage stamps.
Please pray for William Shakespeare
who does not know how much we love him, miss him and think of him.
Yukiko Pearl loves the little bits of toffee
that fall to the floor when Jeffrey is done with his snack.
Please pray for the florist Marieko
who wraps roses in a paper cone then punches the wrong code.
Muriel Frame loves retelling the incident
that happened on the afternoon of November third.
Please pray for our teacher Ursula Twombly
who does not know the half of it.
By the radiator in a wooden chair
wearing woolen stockings sits a little girl
in a dunce's cap, a paper cone rolled to a point
and inverted on her hair; she's got her hands
in her lap and her head bowed down, her chin
is trembling with having been singled out like this
and she is sincere in her fervent wish to die.
Take it away and give it to the Tartars
who roll gloriously into battle.
Self-Portraitas Miranda
by Geri Doran
My story begins at sea, in the bitter liquid.
If not, it would begin in Florida, along I-95
in the circular drive of a circular, lime-green motel.
But I have selected the sea, and you must
trust me on this. Truly terrible stories
begin in navigational error, a slight misreading
of the sight that sets the crew in a maelstrom.
Perhaps in another story it would be a man
standing at the door, surprised that he's knocked,
that you have, in turn, answered. He wishes
now that he had lingered in that drive, paused
before resuming the course toward your door.
As the crew, in desperate but unspoken straits,
wishes belatedly for a drag on the anchor.
Frequently, we are thus carried along.
Frequently, de profundis, we struggle ashore
to find ourselves, if not stranded, then beached.
We are inclined to be grateful for land.
Survivors of shipwreck cast two shadows:
the outline of interrupted light, and an aura, thirst
to drown again. Perhaps, in the unwritten story,
the man at the door looks thirsty. You sense
he has come to repair himself at the dry dock
of your flesh. There is nothing else to do.
Your home is an island of white sand
and he wades in from the shoals of the walkway
asking for fresh water. So you find him berth.
This much Miranda herself could explain:
how Ferdinand come shimmering from the sea
appeared no less a rescuer than she,
with his handful of kelp and the pretty words
of a man desperate for sanctuary.
Ferdinand missed that she was shipwrecked
too. Miranda had the shadowy thirst.
You know the rest of the story.
They're happy. Then it ends in the bitter sea.
鸟儿回旋曲
杰弗里·乔叟
欢迎你,夏天,带着温和的阳光,
寒冷的冬季被迫远远躲藏,
漫长的黑夜只好悄悄退让。
圣瓦伦丁,桂冠高耸,神圣端庄,
小鸟一齐为你歌唱:
寒冷的冬季被迫远远躲藏,
漫长的黑夜只好悄悄退让。
理所当然,时时欣喜若狂,
丛林中它们全都结对成双。
啊,一觉醒来那歌声多么甜蜜酣畅:
欢迎你,夏天,带着温和的阳光,
寒冷的冬季被迫远远躲藏,
漫长的黑夜只好悄悄退让。
The Birds' Rondel
Geoffrey Chaucer
Now welcome, summer, with thy sunshine soft,
This wintry weather thou wilt overtake,
And drive away the night so long and black!
Saint Valentine, thou who art crowned aloft,
The little birds are singing for thy sake;
Now welvome, summer, with thy sunshine soft,
This wintry weather thou wilt overtake.
They have good reason to be glad, and oft,
Since each has found his mate in bush and brake.
O blissfully they sing when they awake;
Now welcome, summers with thy sunshine soft,
This wintry weather thou wilt overtake,
And drive away the night so long and black!
