雨
今早醒来,有一种
强烈的冲动,想整天躺在床上
读书。斗争了一会儿。
然后看向窗外的雨。
放弃了。把自己整个
放进这下雨的早晨。
能不能从头再活一遍?
犯下一样不可饶恕的错误?
是的,只要有半点机会。是的。

RAIN
Woke up this morning with
a terrific urge to lie in bed all day
and read. Fought against it for a minute.
Then looked out the window at the rain.
And gave over. Put myself entirely
in the keep of this rainy morning.
Would I live my life over again?
Make the same unforgivable mistakes?
Yes, given half a chance. Yes.
Raymond Carver
