英文詩創作:The Banana Cat

    這是我之前住巴厘島的鄰居 Audrey Parks Shabbas 在住家附近照的一張照片。裡面有著一隻看起來似乎是被困住在香蕉樹裡的貓。Audrey 知道我喜歡寫詩,所以她促使我幫這個照片寫一首詩。我是以貓的角度來寫這首詩的,牠看起來有點懶,也有點不舒服,因為卡在香蕉樹上動彈不得。
    The Banana Cat
    Who are thou, to wake me in mine slumber,
    For you shalt see me in mine plunder,
    Of the unripe bananas that I hold,
    As the bananas that make thyself bold!
    If thou shalt try to help thyself in this instance,
    Do not stand there at a distance,
    But lower thy banana tree to the ground,
    For unless you do so,
    I shall be bound,
    To this extremely itchy and mildly uncomfortable banana mound.
    In other words,
    I,
    As the great kings before me would say,
    Am ‘Stuck.’
