英语诗歌:The Jaguar
The apes yawn and adore their fleas 2 in the sun.
The parrots shriek 3 as if they were on fire, or strut 4
Like cheap tarts 5 to attract the stroller with the nut.
Fatigued 6 with indolence, tiger and lion
Lie still as the sun. The boa constrictor's coil
Is a fossil. Cage after cage seems empty, or
Stinks 7 of sleepers 8 from the breathing straw.
It might be painted on a nursery wall.
But who runs like the rest past these arrives
At a cage where the crowd stands, stares, mesmerized 9,
As a child at a dream, at a jaguar 10 hurrying enraged 11
Through prison darkness after the drills of his eyes
On a short fierce fuse. Not in boredom 12 -
The eye satisfied to be blind in fire,
By the bang of blood in the brain deaf the ear -
He spins from the bars, but there's no cage to him
More than to the visionary his cell:
His stride is wildernesses 13 of freedom:
The world rolls under the long thrust of his heel.
Over the cage floor the horizons come.
