HE SAID, MARIE, MARIE, HOLD ON TIGHT

And when we were children, staying at the archduke's,
My cousin's, he took me out on a sled,
And I was frightened. He said, Marie,
Marie, hold on tight. And down we went.
In the mountains, there you feel free.
I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.

~ The Waste Land, "The Burial of The Dead", Eliot

自由
我好累好累好累呀。 今天是雨天, 点滴点滴的雨水像沉重的降落伞落在我心上。 我想我该多睡一下。 在我旁边,一个女学生读着法语书,自言自语地细心朗读着。她的声音亲切柔和,有如一条丝绸围巾。我自然地返回中文。我对任何语法规则完全无知。利用中文,我的句子没被规律、习惯所束缚。我在创造我自己的语文 。 我一边游览这个奇妙的城市, 一边编造一个新语文。这该是一种莫名的自由。
