ME AND MY LITTLE BROTHER
Dream: 30 April, 1986
Taking my little brother's hand, I pull him into the train compartment to see
off Teacher Wang. She tells me that the person I want to see is also in the
train car. The train is about to get going, so she shoos me off. I beg her to tell
that other person to come to the window to let me see him for a moment.
The train begins to move, one car after the other, flying by. I stand on the
platform, grabbing my little brother's hand, myriad regrets in my heart.
In a little pen are two white chickens that are eating dirt. I dump a bunch
of spinach in the yard to feed the cats. They are all over the place, and I lure
them one by one into the yard, where I can capture them. There are nine in
total, and inside the little room there are still a whole lot of them that haven't
come out.
梦1986 年4 月30 日——我与弟弟
我拉着弟弟上火车厢里送王老师。她告诉我我想见到的人也在车上,火车要开了,她
把我赶下车,我求她转告那个人在窗口见我一面。火车开了,一节节飞过去,我拉弟
弟的手站在站台上。心中万分遗憾!
小院子里有两只白鸡在吃土,我把一大堆菠菜倒在园中来喂猫,东一个,西一个,我
一个个把它们都抓到园内,共有九只,小房子里还有一大群没出来。
