朵漁詩選·憤然錄

他捧著憤怒的豬腦袋在飲酒，五天啦！是否該幫他去殺人？

她一清早就蹲在河邊哭，是否該給她講一個心酸的笑話？

 

她被春風解開了裙子，露出一小段羞澀；

她被拉進衛生間，用銀兩換取腰間的兩枚紐扣。

 

一個孩子趴在路邊哭，哭她用來乞討的半條腿；

一個老人拄著雙拐在號啕，飯盆裡盛滿了雨水。

 

馬路被剖開，以利於行船；他安於職位，在孵一枚蜥蜴的卵；

我也應該哭！我也應該哭！

 

有人從吊塔上飛下來，有人剛剛爬上腳手架，

我躺進墓穴試了試——那寬度！那深度！

 

這是哭泣的時刻，腫脹的時刻，作偽證的時刻，

我在窗下澆花，找不出更好的比喻。

 

一個男孩在打鳥，一隻眼閉著，另一隻眼根本就不存在。

啊，校長先生，請為白雲另起一個名字。

 

兩個小偷急轉身，相互撞傷了頭，對視一笑，走開。

我是不是該滿面羞紅去跟書記認個錯？

 

這年頭，什麼都有可能。籠子可能等於飛鳥，三千可能等於二百五，

美女可能倒在一個盲人的懷裡。

 

如此多的手指，在肉鋪裡、在火光裡、在早熟的乳房裡，

人們啊，還配談什麼押韻、傷感、人民幣！

[身體的高雅]

正如德•維爾巴利西斯夫人需要嚴肅的態度，才能使她的談話和回憶錄給人以一種輕薄而有才華的印象那樣，聖盧為使自己的身軀具有高度的貴族氣派，從不考慮怎樣顯示，而是尋求更高的目標，使貴族氣派作為無意識的和高雅的線條融於他的身體中。因此，對他來說，思想的高貴離不開身體的高雅，但是，如果沒有思想的高貴，身體的高雅也就殘缺不全。一個藝術家要在作品中反映自己的思想，無需把思想直接表達出來；甚至可以說，對上帝的最高贊揚存在於無神論對上帝的否定中，無神論者認為天地萬物已經十全十美了，無需再有一個造物主。

張子選的詩·偶爾

一向是草木光陰

偶爾會羊朝北去，而馬首向南

就如雲在青天，水在湖面

也是偶爾，我會驟然記起你來

這世上，其實該來的人都來了就好

你能來應該更好

只是，大家都在佛也在

而你沒來

偶爾，我會坐在事情的側面

看舊山坡上，滾下新的時間

直到草們隨著季節倒伏，斜出正午

我還是沒弄明白，似乎活著

一直是件大事，如果仔細想想

為何又沒那麼了不起

有時候，事物會有一個

可能不合我意的尺寸

其實愛情和命運也是

即便心裡的你，好過整個人類

紙的背面，摸上去

還像十一月的結尾

偶爾，一場雨夾風帶雪地過去

另一個我，無悲無喜地走來

天空下完全像是沒計劃地游牧

很原生態地走掉一個下午

仿佛一雙牛角或者一陣馬嘶

就能把日子扯得又老又長

地球還是圓的，我對此

感到比較滿意和放心

有時，地平線上甚至會

空餘下千人搬不動的一個靜

倘若此際，你從輪回中回過頭來

會看見，我在，其實我一直都在

但你始終沒有回頭

韻文化：和諧的聲音

In Search of My Senses 追隨感官

地方文化營銷 2.4 慢遊

陳明發·評註

大陸詩壇正嚴肅在探討「未來詩學」，觸及的議題讓中華圈都不能不惶恐。

另一方面，有件事似乎是忽略了：回頭看看劫後一代人以前寫的那些作品，要不是身強力壯，寫得來嗎？

身體寫作，是當時的一個新方向；在「用身體」書寫之餘，就像部分浪漫時期的西洋詩人，在血性之外，是否還有別的仰望或透見？

從一場沸沸騰騰了十年的大夢中驚醒過來，多少人、多少家庭的奶瓶、熱水壺或打點滴的針頭一下子抽空，會有怎樣的反應？

既言詩人是來給世界命名的，那又是怎樣的一個名堂？

四十餘年過去了。當中，有人已經是寫了一輩子詩（實際上只寫了幾年便一生了）；而其他不少人若說已經寫了大半輩子的詩也不為過。很多人更是在國內外論了大半輩子的詩；在高等學府教了大半輩子的詩。

名目、范例、論據、標簽與爭議夠豐富的。

豐富歸豐富，對海外讀者來說，還是回去欣賞那些原作，比較好體驗那場大夢後的暈眩。比較好理解他們為事後當時命名的原生態。

身為大夢外的海外事後讀者，我的第一個反應是：那是現代詩的洪荒啊！

新事物如外來信仰、社會風氣的開放、個人生活的自由抉擇，既新鮮又讓人摸不透。神性、佛性、聖性與人性如沙塵暴，讓人張不開眼看清前方；一張口想說點什麼，唇舌間自然滿是難堪的沙石。但也有好些例外，天搖地晃中依然聽得出清晰的調子，感人的歌聲。

與同時代不少模仿海子、顧城等的作品比較起來，張子選的〈偶爾〉無疑是「異類」。雖然類似角度在海外並不新鮮，但那種結合地方特性而寫的作品，卻使它佔了一個高度。詩性純粹度更突出。（20.5.2024）

張子選的詩·牧羊姑娘

怎麼辦？

青海青，

人間有我用壞的時光；

怎麼辦？

黃河黃，

天下有你亂放的歌唱。　

怎麼辦？

日月山上夜菩薩默默端莊；
　

怎麼辦？

你把我的輪迴擺的不是地方！

怎麼辦？

知道你在牧羊，

不知你在哪座山上

怎麼辦？

知道你在世上，

不知你在哪條路上。　

怎麼辦？

三江源頭好日子白白流淌； 　

怎麼辦？

我與你何時重遇在人世上

張子選，生於1960年代。詩人、編劇。主要作品有《阿克塞》《西部故事》《超現實村莊》《東方情緒》《藏地詩篇》等系列組詩。出版有著作多部。擔綱《中國漢字聽寫大會》《中國成語大會》《見字如面》等文化綜藝主創編劇或總編劇。現居北京。

Nomadic Narratives

1.Order is often considered crucial for understanding stories, but this notion can be challenged. Maria Tamboukou from the University of East London has introduced the concept of nomadic narratives. These narratives don't necessarily follow a strict chronological order with clear beginnings and endings. Instead, they meander through various literary styles and autobiographical accounts, blurring the lines between genres.

2.Narrative analytics frequently emphasizes the dynamic process through which stories evolve, focusing on how meaning emerges and narratives take shape rather than adhering strictly to their sequential structure. There's a notable shift in attention from merely representing experiences to understanding the effects of power dynamics, knowledge relations, and desires in play. Analysis now pays close attention to the fluidity and openness of narratives, acknowledging the virtual forces that influence them, as well as the significance of silences and unspoken elements within them.

3.Narration revolves around the interconnectedness of experiences and relationships. Traditionally, it hasn't involved the researcher's personal identification with their historical subject. Rather, it's been about the spatial and temporal connections that lead one to recognize that their present as a researcher comprises a series of realized moments, enveloped by numerous potentialities emerging from the study.

Senses of a Place

It had come to me not in a sudden epiphany but with a gradual sureness, a sense of meaning like a sense of place. When you give yourself to places, they give you yourself back; the more one comes to know them, the more one seeds them with the invisible crop of memories and associations that will be waiting for you when you come back, while new places offer up new thoughts, new possibilities. Exploring the world is one of the best ways of exploring the mind, and walking travels both terrains. (Rebecca Solnit)

All Americans need a sense of place. That's what makes our physical surroundings worth caring about. (Ed McMahon)

OK, well maybe I have to get back to Judaism. In the sense that if I look at me and my forebears forever stretching back to I don't know, whenever there's no sense of place and therefore no sense of nationality. (Janet Suzman)

All great hotels should have stellar personalized service, a unique design that gives guests a sense of place, an excellent on-site restaurant, and other fantastic amenities. Obviously location is a key factor as well. (Ivanka Trump)

Lowell is my home. It is where I drew my first breath. It is where I will always derive a sense of place and a sense of belonging.（Paul Tsongas）

Lap of Luxury – Origin & Meaning by Candace Osmond

What does lap of luxury mean? I can assure you it doesn’t involve a luxury lap pool or a lap-sized serving of luxury chocolates. We use this phrase in English to describe a condition of amazing comfort and extravagance. So, let’s dive into the plush cushions of this idiom, explore its origin, and look at some alternative ways to say it and how to use it in a sentence.

The idiom lap of luxury is meant to describe a state of opulence or extravagant comfort. Picture this: lounging on a sun-kissed beach, sipping cocktails, with no worries in the world. That’s the lap of luxury. It’s where many of us aspire to be, but few find ourselves.

I often think of my trip to Cuba years ago. I’d just had my second kid, and work was crazy, so the trip was well-deserved. We stayed at a five-star resort, had zero responsibilities or places to be, and food and drinks were brought to us by the pool each day. That was the lap of luxury, and I’ll never forget it!
