陳明發·冷處理

冷處理能解決誤會？

有時候，這想法恐怕是最大的誤解。

我把榴槤放進冰箱，結果凍得像石頭。

連香味都没了。

Cold Treatment

Can cold treatment melt a misunderstanding?
Sometimes, I fear — that thought
itself is the deepest one.

I placed a durian in the fridge,
and it froze into stone —

Even its fragrance was gone.

(From “Notes of the First 25 Years of the New Century” Sept. 1, 2002)

陳明發·日常生活

我們有一些什麽
可從這兒長出来
一些尋常呼吸
就可體認的東西

Everyday Life by Dr. Tan Beng Huat

What in our everyday lives
might take root and grow from here —
small things of living,
quietly felt and understood.
