上帝是存在还是纯粹的推动力?是风

还是支配风?当我们生活舒缓

并能拥有所爱的一切,它伸开四肢趴在

我们的膝部,像个身材瘦长的洋娃娃。

当风暴
来袭,我们一无所有,我们去追逐

注定会失去的一切,如此活灵活现

面带惊恐

The Weather in Space     by Tracy K. Smith
 

Is God being or pure force? The wind            

Or what commands it? When our lives slow       

And we can hold all that we love, it sprawls    

In our laps like a gangly doll. When the storm  

Kicks up and nothing is ours, we go chasing      

After all were certain to lose, so alive    

Faces radiant with panic
