The Thread

分类: 英语诗歌 
by Don Paterson    Jamie made his landing in the world    so hard he ploughed straight back into the earth.    They caught him by the head of his one breath    and pulled him up.  They don‘t know how it held.    And so today thank what higher will    brought us to here, to you and me and Russ,    the great twin-engined swaying wingspan of us    roaring down the back of Kirrie Hill    and your two-year-old lungs somehow out-revving    every engine in the universe.    All that trouble just to turn up the dead    was all I thought that long week.  Now the thread    is holding all of us: look at our tiny house,    son, the white dot of your mother waving.
