许其正：布达拉宫怪象

布达拉宫，久仰了

这次我迢迢千里而来

却无缘亲自进去参访

只在路过时短暂下车

远远地照一张相片留念

因为我没能支持那么久

我还头晕，乘坐救护车和轮椅

我怕高山反应症会惩罚我

护送我的医师也不允许

说来奇怪之至

我到别处旅游

高度和青藏高原差不多

从没发生过问题

为什么这次会这样？

而且更奇怪的是

除了在布达拉宫这里照的照片

同在一个相机里的其他照片全部消失

这是为的什么？这是为的什么？

An Absurd Thing That Happened Beside Potala Palace

Hsu chiCheng

Potala palace, I have long been looking forward to visiting you

Today I have come from afar

I haven’t the pleasure of a close visit to you

But take a photo as a souvenir

From a distant place

Because I am still weak

And still feel dizzy due to altitude sickness

The doctors and nurses escorting me don’t allow me

To get out of the ambulance

I feel puzzled

Why I didn’t suffer from altitude sickness

When traveling in the other plateaus

Which are almost as high as this plateau

Why I feel like this

What makes me feel more puzzled

Is all the photos memorizes in my digital camera

Have disappeared but the photos of Potala Palace

Why? Why? Why…
