(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

by Deborah Bernhardt

The opposite of striking him.

It is gawky to say.

Speech， a loose tooth.

That I'm in love I can't.

Wasps¹ and wisps of words. My minutiae² sentiments

could make your mind pruney. What if I fixate

on a M.O.M.A. Pollock， Echo， till drip lines

are dozens of shoelaces， tipped with lacquer and raging.

Daily strands³： Me， too， I… or That reminds me of…

Angling. Gawky， really gawky with this is where I went and what I did.

When I am the conversationalist

the less patient fi xate on a point

by my voile head. Mental pushpins scrape me：

the bored post notes.

Wholly detached listeners cast documents

right over my face， cutting and pasting text.

I myself concentrate on a speaker's lock of hair

just so I'm not waiting to chime.

As I was saying. When he held me， I was not a boring person.

Embarrassing， the need to peep， this saturation⁴.

Forgive me. One I adore absorbs

my excess speech （her eyeglasses solar panels）。

Another I adore fields my prattle⁵

despite her burning focaccia. All my talking

and I forget to charge the cordless. One who is

my poet-cousin-whom I also adore， and

shortly I would like to say more about her-

fi nds humor in that juiceless telephone.

Through my answering machine， gleeful-sweet：

I feel helpless because I can't hear you！ Now I add

there is a gallantry to her poems.

I can't not say： the particulars of his handholding
