Karen Kun’s Translation #8 - from Kerri Shying R’s “suffocate the knowledge”

窒息知識

我的狗出去了

對著外面
空吠
我站在那裡
一隻手
仍在布上擦乾
聽見
夜晚

回到自己的
黑暗

小雨
冷冷打在臂上
看

貓可能在想
那群沒文化的傻冒
今年
北移得有點早

轉身走
隔壁的狗
吠
我

在門廊
一隻

單獨的猴子

suffocate the knowledge

my dog goes out

barking to my nobody
there      I stand
still   one hand drying
on a cloth    I  hear
the night

pinging back the dark
in me


small rain
cold on my arms
see

I point out the cat    think
maybe the bogongs
 coming north a
little soon

this year

turn and go
next door’s dog
barks   and there’s
me

a monkey

on the porch
 alone
