聖誕夜宴

2009的耶誕,溢著滿滿的年味。

雪來的早了。十吋深。

這次,自己親手打掃家裡每一個角落,準備與朋友慶祝的菜餚和美酒。簡單的布置,經過朋友的巧手點綴,更增添了華麗氣氛。

每一個人,在過去一年,都流了眼淚。
但在此時刻,我們笑著,唱著,鬧著,盡情娛樂。

為2009,妝點歡愉的尾聲。

愛。清涼如水。

書寫愛如書寫一紙遺書 遺書之三 布靈奇

於是我成為分裂的河,在沙洲之間
無盡數沸騰。

百分之一百二十分
熱烈又殘酷的存有,如滾水
無盡數輪轉。

而那苦楚洶湧
混淆佇立其中的我。

我成為分裂的河,在沙洲之間
無盡數沸騰。

依舊執著。依舊著魔。

(書寫愛如書寫一紙遺書 Series To be continued)

書寫愛如書寫一紙遺書 遺書之二 布靈奇

這著實令人苦惱。
日復一日,在城市的巨大的齒輪底下碾輾。我疲憊的軀竅。
如一只滿盈的杯,任何輕柔晃動,都會溢出眼淚。
我依舊依戀毛衣,然已倦怠冬日。
我愛你。卻期待自我的碎裂 。

如果只能在黑暗中匍匐前行
如何更接近太陽。他說
這是不是黑洞

但這個箱子沒有出口。沒有風景。
我該如何行走,
沿著城市的圍牆割傷自己。

我寧願,在脆弱的情調與優雅
中溺斃自己。我愛你

而我無盡疲憊。
如一只滿盈的杯,
任何輕柔晃動,都會溢出眼淚。

書寫愛如書寫一紙遺書 遺書之一 布靈奇

墨水揮發的筆尖痛楚,每日清晨散去又來

書寫愛如書寫一紙遺書
親愛的,我憂鬱
請你別離開我

那一輩子的思緒排山倒海
我害怕原因
我害怕結果

瞭解瞬刻即便失去
書寫愛如書寫一紙遺書

書寫愛,如書寫一紙遺書
暴戾中一朵花與你的名字
醉酒之夜敲破無數頭顱

書寫,愛如一紙遺書
黑暗尾隨你的側身我尾隨你
你黑暗中的沉默

Being 存在

I phoned her. Immediately after the connection, she said she had three words for me. She asked me if I have felt what she meant to say. She knew I synched with her even miles away. I did not tell the answer for her - not until much later when she asked again, when she said that she did not mean that little secrete between us before I was born. And these nights, instead of chanting names of the sacred, she chanted these words in my name.

Of course, I know she does. I do for her too. That's why I am here.

That’s why I am her little flower.

播電話給他。一接通,他說他心中念著三個字。即使相隔甚遠,我們依舊牽繫彼此。我沒有回復答案。直到很久,直到他告訴我,我們之間 – 而在我存有之前 – 的秘密,是一個無心但可能的傷害。那些夜裡,他默念那些字,以我的名,代替聖人的名。

當然,我知道。他愛我。我也愛他。這緣就了我的存在。

所以我是他的花朵。

維根斯坦的難處

"What a statement seems to imply to me, it doesn't to you. If you should ever live among foreign people for any length of time and be dependent on them, you will understand my difficulty." - Wittgenstein

“一件陳述對我的意味,對你並不同回事。 你要是居住在外國人之中一段時間,並且依靠他們,你将了解我的困难”。 維根斯坦

Michael Forever!

雖然不能死時美如秋月,已經不忍看他逐漸腐朽的臉和低落的人生。我想這是最好的終點。讓我們重新回顧他燦爛的音樂與舞蹈奇才。

休假日的好天氣

在白板凳上喝著拿鐵 ,聽著Keith Jarrett,等著進入皇家藝術學院欣賞夏展。太陽暖暖的,天空藍藍的。深深呼吸這樣的自在。

Tasting Chateau du Seuil (Cérons, Bordeaux)

Date: 18 June 2009
Venue: Tapestry Room, Gore Hotel, London

Sean and Nicola Allison's wine is clean, truthful and mineral with a strong sense of constraint. But it would be very wrong to think that constraint is equivalent to subtlety.

Chateau du Seuil Rosé 2007/8

Very subtle hints of vanilla, strawberries, raspberries with dry finishing. It's not the rosé rosé but I ADORE THIS COLOUR!

516

Chateau du Seuil Graves Blanc 2004

Very classic white, rich mineral and clean palate

524

Chateau du Seuil Graves Rouge 2004

513526

The cork vaporises wonderful scents of sandalwood, ground spices and dried cranberries.

The wine has a rounded start and peppery finish - soft for a 4 year old claret but the sequence of the waves is not quite right for me. I suspect Sean has a love for liquor. And I actually expected a grander wine from its cork but no, it's not there. The body failed to capture the fairy of fragrance.

The dessert wine is Chateau du Seuil Cérons 2006

Overall, this is a very fun evening with descent food and good wine. Though it may not be the kind of wine that one falls in love at the first sight, it has a unique identity of its own that can be appreciated. I feel like that I have rubbed the hotel because the wine tasting event is such an amazing offer from Wine Studio. But you will only realize the value when you turn up since it’s not the commercial wine tasting environment you would usually expect. I would be happy to go on monthly basis. Well, if there is a second time and with different wine makers of course!

This is the first time that I put personal photos on my blog. Maybe I am feeling too at ease that this site doesn’t really reach the mass.

第九個夏天

莎士比亞曾經提過溫柔灰藍又微微陰霾的天空嗎 ?

這是在英國的第九個夏天。

幾許晴朗的日子,在我的花園裡,索求久違的太陽。花園裡有玫瑰花,與蘋果樹下的虎斑貓嶼小黑貓。幸福是不及十分之一生活的小小愜意。

許多年後的我再也不會一個勁地,在陌生的聚餐裡,打起自己的毛線。

一百五十西西的葡萄酒也不會讓我醉。

我給予朋友的多,受之的少。並且了解我是曾經多麼地被寵護。

我想念抒發與發呆的自由。雖然我珍惜真實的生活的磨練。

還有呢 ?

我吃魚。最愛的魚。我喝酒。貪戀更多美酒。我渴望太陽。一個新的概念。我喜歡marmite。一件起初讓我作嘔的怪東西。我試圖維持和諧氣氛;女主人樣地。

有時覺得很渴很累。但除了想家,我已經獲得愛情與信賴。

紀欣 Evgeny Kissin 六月五日倫敦演奏會

初次聆聽紀欣的演奏會,是在二零零七年。便愛上了他的專注。隨即訂購之後一年的票劵。去年冬,因為旅途勞累,而錯記了日期,十分懊惱。

二零零九年,仔仔細細地記著。

紀欣的演奏依舊如此完美。完美在於無保留地,將自我的存在揉入音樂的至境。至美。

而今年,透過普羅高菲夫,他展現了屬於個人的,溫潤如玉的,強勁。而不是全然投降於藝術。

彷彿熟悉又陌生的蕭邦,透過紀欣的手指,鮮活起來。溫柔的思念與熱切的渴望,在我心底震動。流出了眼淚。

POEM: 狼煙。初雪。灰塵。 By 布靈奇

凍了一夜的狼煙,從我毛衣一角突地燒起。

那觀望煙台的夜晚,我作了夢。一枚彎曲破碎的車廂,拖曳著。

雪地裡,暴露著我們的溫度。

簡訊裡,S說「行李帶著了」。

我的靈魂沒有記憶,只認得憂愁和S的臉。

虔誠的目的地裡,陌生的孩童。

一雙雙鄉愿的眼睛,穿過長廊與房舍。

你突然抱住我,說我到家了。

這是一座淡藍色的牆,櫛比鱗次的窗棱空缺著玻璃。

這是一個沒有軟墊的床,一張沒有書的桌子。除了你還抱著我,我只擁有灰塵。

但你的臉與孩童一樣陌生。

灰塵是最最熟悉又模糊的記憶,奇異地

在撥弄時散發初雪的芬芳。脆弱又清新地

出現。消失。

2009日本東京淺草寺籤

第四十九籤

"正好中秋月 蟾蜍皎潔間 暗雲知何處 故故兩相攀"

十五號的夜晚,沒有月缺,又圓又明亮的月亮般地,運氣非常好吧。因為月亮皎潔,住在裡面的兔子和蟾蜍能清楚地看見般地,清靜的心就能看到光輝。天空一點雲都沒有,萬里晴空般地,沒有妨礙的東西,心中的迷惘也沒有吧。整個天空沒有雲般地,心中無比地晴朗吧。
願望:會實現吧。疾病:嚴重吧。遺失物:難出現吧。盼望的人:變得遲遲才出現吧。蓋新居、搬家:草草了事吧。旅行:好吧。結婚、交往:草草了事吧。

MY COMMENT:

倫敦的天空,佈滿了雲。我清淨的心,在陰雨裡遊走。
一顆顆迷惘的眼睛不斷從身邊落下。一滴滴我們的病。

走夢

回到居住的地方,開始作夢。夢中在東京不斷行走。行走的動作,持續在夢中。夢到飛行。在地方中遊走。
