Somewhere I have never Travelled

somewhere i have never traveled,gladly beyond
any experience,your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near

your slightest look easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skillfully,mysteriously)her first rose

or if your wish be to close me,i and
my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the snow carefully everywhere descending;

nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility:whose texture
compels me with the colour of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing

(i do not know what is is about you that closes
and opens; only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands

--E.E.Cummings(1894-1962)

從島上離開，由這個島到那個島，陸海空三樣交通工具24小時內完成。疲憊的身去興奮的心情，最後又離開了她，回到浯島上。如同去年夏天的記憶一般又朦朧，霧氣繚繞的坡地；重重踩下微微發光的沙；波波湧浪中的藍光，亦像是遙不可及的你。

我說你不回去陪女朋友，你笑著看我。

無法再追逐些什麼，注定是會原地踏步。人其實是一種雌雄同體的生物，我說的是精神，並追求著一種柏拉圖式的愛情，這裡是愛情，與戀愛不同的是那種長久卻短暫的感覺，一秒即為永恆，然而卻有好幾萬個億個永恆才能真正形成永恆。

或許我想追求的永遠是這樣的愛情，柏拉圖式的、神聖的、沒任何汙穢的肉體關係。

雙性大概就是這個意思。
