孽
又是一隻蝴蝶
這次是黑色的
不細意看
還以為是那看守靈魂的飛蛾
仍停在老地方
我的肩膀
彷彿我的擔子不夠重
我煩厭地
舉起手中的香菸
狠狠地烙在她的翅膀上
「唰」一聲
她化成一縷黑煙
焦燻的氣味卻在空氣中久久不散

經過十一個月的時光,多想離開,也總有點傷感。
於復活節期間與爸媽到郷下旅遊,有一半的時間都是在旅遊巴上度過。大睡之餘的時間,我讀了《台灣八大家散文精品集——李敖三毛卷》。
世界亂了,事情都不跟據章法發展。
轉眼間原來已經過了十五年,離一九八九年的天安門民運事件已過了十五年。當時我還是一個五年級的小學生,五、六月期間每天看著電視新聞,也不太了解事件的因由過程。
中國要聞
I have been constantly confronted by two goals I have in life: life goal and career goal, which don't seem to match and in fact, contradictory.
The first of April has a few connotations to me.
First and of course, it’s April Fools Day. The one and only time I got fooled on this occasion was two years ago by Christian and da group. It’s a very dumb but funny joke and I knew what was going on right away. How could Kelvin possibly kill anyone yeah??!!
Second, it’s Norman’s birthday. But for sure he’s no fool.
Lastly, from this year onwards, April Fools Day is also the memorial anniversary of Leslie Cheung’s death.
Last year today, while the city was overshadowed by the outbreak of SARS, the superstar added much agony to the scene with him jumping off from Mandarin Hotel and ending the scourge in life. I was quite shocked and disappointed that such tough-as-Kevlar legendary figure ended his life that way. I usually despise suicidal behaviors, but as one does not speak devil of the dead, so I’m indifferent. Nevertheless, Leslie Cheung did have his last contribution to the society in the sense that his death raised the awareness on the illness of depression.
“Time flies” is my most said phrase. And sure it does. One year has passed like a snap, last year this time, everything was so different.
