微小的謊言近似錯誤。

If their spurning is hard on thy mind, yet if thou wert able to seek a tunnel in the ground or a ladder to the skies and bring them a sign,- (what good?). If it were Allah's will, He could gather them together unto true guidance: so be not thou amongst those who are swayed by ignorance (and impatience)!

"Dear Zinedine, in such a hard and intense moment for you, I would like to express the whole nation's affection and admiration for you.

"You are a virtuoso, a genius of world football. You are also a man of heart, commitment, conviction. That's why France admires and loves you."

And I miss you.

「人類一思考，上帝就發笑。」

我只想引用這句話來代表一切。

願意為席丹加油的人，希望您給阿丹、Henry、Ribery、Sagnol、Thuram、Makelele、Vieira、Wiltord等人喝采。

義和團式的搖旗吶喊就不必了。我不是韓國隊或英格蘭的球迷，並不需要在場邊拿敵隊的遺照或封人家「假摔王」來自爽。

至於那群演技超棒的義大利美男子嘛，嘿嘿嘿......



有了他們我什麼都不怕。

我沒時間。

昨夜故人又入夢中，此次場景更形怪誕。吾與友人前往一水之隔的離島，只是風光險峻地勢嶙峋，全然不似吾等狎遊經年之島。

途中偶遇茶水攤，稍事歇息。攤旁一騎士卸下口罩，出聲招呼，竟為故人也。言談內容依舊不復記憶，轉身前故人突發一語，昔日挂懷安在焉？

當下彷如棒喝，反顧自身境遇，惶悚不能自持。

夜寐有夢，良久未見之人現身夢中。

場景極不相稱，思來卻頗為適當。恕吾恐難言明，僅能透露與奧國佛氏學說難脫干係。

彼人形貌神容依舊，白駒過隙，可時間誠然靜止於歷史斷裂臨界點。

兩人對訴爾時迄今自身所作所為，補遺彼此平行路程上的空白。

細節已如蟾影於晴光消逝，依稀尋回幾本書名及一座泳池。

覺寤，悲不自勝。

有一度，每天早上得用上全部的力氣才能起床，說服自己今天還是得過下去。穿著昨天前天大前天穿過的衣服出門前，我會從許把即將烤得過乾的土司丟進烤麵包機，用海灘少年時期某年生日收到的咖啡機煮著廉價的昆蟲牌曼巴咖啡，打開音響消滅宿舍裡無言的晨光，呆坐著打開無聲的電視，看著新聞裡我完全不想參與的世界，或看著晨間重播的<<美麗人生>>或<<大和撫子>>裡不屬於我的人生，配著洗碗水搬滋味的滾燙咖啡把乾澀難嚥的土司沖下喉頭，這時CD走到第3首曲目：

Lisa knows a girl who's been abused
It changed her philosophy in '82
She's always looking for a fight
She keeps the neighbours up all night

I go to her when I'm feeling slack
The girl's using me as a punching bag
I think that I could help her out
But the girl's got a lot to be mad about

But in the first moment of her waking up
She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it
When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up
She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing
Yeah she's losing it

Lisa met Chelsea at the knocking school
Chelsea didn't feel like following the rules
So they left the place for another school
Where the boys go with boys and the girls with girls

Chelsea was the ONE who's been abused
It changed her philosophy in '82
She says, "Inch for inch and pound for pound"
Who needs boys when there's Lisa round?"

BUT in the first moment of her waking up
She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it
When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up
She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it
She goes to the mirror to put on her stuff
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah she's losing it
When she doesn't speak to anyone till four o'clock
She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it
Oh yeah she's losing it…

「原來你也是這樣啊。」闃黑的夜路上突然亮起一盞微黃閃爍的燈，「不然先走到下個路口再說吧。」

背起袋子，轉開門把，迎向朝陽。這，又是另一首歌的故事了。

送我自己的生日之歌：

love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes

love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes

仔細想想，

與令人心痛的美貌相比，

我還是比較眷戀令人心碎的聲音。

一切拜託了。拜託。

前略。

大家都知道我不打籃球也不看NBA，但馬刺進了準決賽還是令人精神為之一振。

我想說的只有這樣。

以上。
