To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time            赠单身男子
                       ——莫负韶华好时光

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,            玫瑰堪折直须折,
Old time is still a-flying;                 去日匆匆一何多!
And this same flower that smiles today,          灿烂此花与君和,
Tomorrow will be dying.                 孰知明日香魂落.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,          上有白日煌如炬,
The higher he’s a-getting,                一意攀登高如何!
The sooner will his race be run,             上行愈甚归程促,
And nearer he’s to setting.               不觉已是西山迫.

That age is best which is the first,             岁月独尊韶华贵,
When youth and blood are warmer;            青春意气正蓬勃.
But being spent, the worse, and worst          一旦抛洒付逝水,
Times still succeed the former.              从此多舛叹奈何.

Then be not coy, but use your time,          人生及时当有为,
And while ye may, go marry;              惺惺作态不需多.
For having lost but once your prime,           连理可结自当结,
You may forever tarry.                  盛年不再惟蹉跎.

好强，楼主.真的快要投地了..
这段时间还在为定学校烦，垂涎着南大，..今天一看你的帖，心凉得那叫快...06年招的若都如你这般才，07的我大概没指望了...
风萧萧兮～～

对了，楼主能公布下你的mail吗？我是新手...查不了你资料里的邮箱.感觉找到党组织了，有些疑惑想请教，可以吗.
不过，我这就去灌水去..西西

Dear all,

Printed below is a small poem-like thing I did years ago. I call it a "poem-like thing" rather than a poem, for I am not all that certain whether it does deserve this precious name of poem. Anyway I attempted to express in English some peculiar states of mind I was then in. You will detect a certain bitter sense of disillusionment in this "poem", a certain pensiveness and a vehement longing for a meaning to base my life on. I hope you enjoy reading my little "poem". I would be more than happy to receive any comments on how it can be improved.

best wishes!

My Soul

My soul is a wingless specter charged with a natural urge for brightness,
Flying alone in the untracked cosmos utterly indifferent,
Against the immense sinister darkness
for a bleak ray of fire.

My soul is an unwilling tenant of my mortal coil,
whose confinement he frequently deserts
To set himself in free motions of exploration
in his unbounded realm of speculation and reasoning.

My soul is a lonely eagle gliding his way in the gray and gloomy sky,
Whose cries are only echoed by this airy emptiness and this unconscious tangibility.
No human imposition is potent enough to cripple him
In his constant and irresistible inquiries about his fellow souls and this cosmos.

My soul is a girl wounded and made skeptical in a failed love affair,
Wearing a cold countenance in judging one’s merit and assessing another’s constancy,
While inwardly craving and mad for a boy she could commit to once and for all.

In the deep chaste and unbroken night
I could feel my soul burning and dying for a meaning for his orientation.
It is a peculiar human pestilence that shall haunt me until I die.
