一张照片上有埃菲尔铁塔的故事和一只在天上的猫咪

波兰女诗人辛波丝卡,曾经在1996年得到诺贝尔文学奖。那时候诺贝尔奖还没有这么多争议,每位得到的人都显得实至名归。之前只读过她的《一见钟情》,人们不断引用她的名句,让自己相信,只要相爱的,就注定相遇。
Such certainty is beautiful,
but uncertainty is more beautiful still
辛波丝卡出生在波兰,五岁起写诗,与米兰昆德拉笔下的天才诗人相比,开始得晚了一些。孩子们是天生的诗人,思想上没有任何牵绊,纯真自然。他们以最朴素的心体会韵律,以找到押韵的几个字而欣喜。在他们的天空下,奔跑着自由的羊群和缤纷的树叶。
顾城八岁时候写过一首关于杨树的诗:
我失去了一只臂膀
就张开了一只眼睛
每个孩子都这样长大了,他们变成了严肃的医生,律师,卡车司机,园丁,售货员,老师,政府官员。。。
读到,很喜欢。
一个人诞生,这件事笃定之后,该如何呢?我们该如何从他一双真诚的,张望的眼睛,小耳朵小鼻子,他装满牛奶的小肚子,看出他将来会是怎么样的人,怎么样地改变世界。他是上帝的仆人,还是善良的母亲?是诺贝尔奖得主,还是地铁里的王鹏?他是茫茫人海中的一个像素,还是永不生锈的螺丝钉?
每个孩子都是天使,希特勒也曾经是。可我们在看着刚出生的他们时,只凝视到清澈的眼睛,我们期望他们幸福快乐。可实际上,对他们的将来,我们一无所知。

小睡袍里的这个小家伙是谁?
那是小宝宝阿道尔夫,希特勒家的小男孩!
他长大了会成为法学博士么?
还是会成为维也纳歌剧院的男高音?
这是谁的小手,谁的小耳朵小眼睛小鼻子?
谁的装满牛奶的小肚子,我们还不知道:
是印刷工的,医生的,商人的,牧师的?
这双小脚最后将会走向哪里?
去花园,去学校,去办公室,去结婚,
去娶了比格尔迈斯特的女儿?
心爱的小天使,妈妈的小太阳,小宝贝,
在一年前他出生的时候,
天上地下都没曾少了征兆:
春日的阳光,窗外的天竺葵,
院子里的手风琴声,
包在玫瑰色纸包里的好运气,
还有就在他妈妈产前预示着命运的梦里:
梦中的鸽子意味着充满欢乐的消息,
只要抓住它,一个期待已久的客人就会来临。
砰,砰,是谁在敲打,那是阿道尔夫的心跳声。
一个小奶嘴,尿布,拨浪鼓,围嘴,
我们健康的小男孩,感谢上帝,真是好运气,
看起来就像他的父母,像篮子里的小猫咪,
和任何人家相册里的小娃娃都一样。
嘘,别出声,咱们不能哭,宝贝,
罩布下的照像机就要来一个“咔嚓”。
克林格摄影室,格拉本街,布劳瑙,
而布劳瑙是个很小但值得尊敬的镇子,
诚信的商业交易,乐于助人的邻居,
还有面团发酵和灰色肥皂的味道。
没有人听见恶狗的嚎叫,或是命运的脚步。
历史老师解开领口
在家庭作业上打了个哈欠。
英文版本:
And who’s this little fellow in his itty-bitty robe?
That’s tiny baby Adolf, the Hittler’s little boy!
Will he grow up to be an LL.D.?
Or a tenor in Vienna’s Opera House?
Whose teensy hand is this, whose little ear and eye and nose?
Whose tummy full of milk, we just don’t know:
printer’s, doctor’s, merchant’s, priest’s?
Where will those tootsy-wootsies finally wander?
To garden, to school, to an office, to a bride,
maybe to the Burgermeister’s daughter?
Precious little angel, mommy’s sunshine, honeybun,
while he was being born a year ago,
there was no dearth of signs on the earth and in the sky:
spring sun, geraniums in windows,
the organ-grinder’s music in the yard,
a lucky fortune wrapped in rosy paper,
then just before the labor his mother’s fateful dream:
a dove seen in dream means joyful news,
if it is caught, a long-awaited guest will come.
Knock knock, who’s there, it’s Adolf’s heartchen knocking.
A little pacifier, diaper, rattle, bib,
our bouncing boy, thank God and knock on wood, is well,
looks just like his folks, like a kitten in a basket,
like the tots in every other family album.
Shush, let’s not start crying, sugar,
the camera will click from under that black hood.
The Klinger Atelier, Grabenstrasse, Braunau,
and Braunau is small but worthy town,
honest businesses, obliging neighbors,
smell of yeast dough, of gray soap.
No one hears howling dogs, or fate’s footsteps.
A history teacher loosens his collar
and yawns over homework.

摘一段书中关于猫咪心理的理论:The author wrote:In the last chapter of The Natural Cat, the psychology of the feline is discussed.
At some point in the chapter, it says to watch and notice: if you come home from work every day at six o’clock, when you arrive at the regular hour, your cat will be dozing contentedly in some comfortable spot.
He will be relaxed and calm when he lifts his head up to welcome you home.
HOWEVER, if you usually come home at six o’clock, and then you don’t come home until eleven or so, when you walk in the door your cat will be pacing up and down, nervously wondering if you’ve deserted and abandoned him.
This is because his fifty million years of jungle instinct will have taken over, and the cat is sure that you’ve been eaten by a predator. He has no idea you went for a drink with a co-worker, then hit a ballgame with a pal.
The only thing he can conceive of is that you were minding your own business, lapping up some water from a lagoon, and some tusked animal weighing over two tons came along and bit you in half.作者写道:《自然的猫》最后一章讨论了猫科动物的心理学。书里某个段落这样说,仔细观察:如果你每天6点下班回家,当你准点到家时,你的猫会在很舒适的地方打盹。当他抬头欢迎你回家时一定是放松并且平静的。然而,如果你某天夜里11点才回来,你进门时,你的猫咪就会上下踱步,很不安地猜想你是否离弃了他。这是因为他5亿年丛林生活的本能使然,猫咪会认为你被某个捕食者吃掉了。他完全不会理解什么你跟同事出去喝了一杯然后又跟朋友去打了台球这种事。他能想象到的就是你在某个小水塘孤军奋战,2吨重的长着长牙的某种动物跑过来把你撕成2半。
