🖊️【詩文】The moment you saw me

The moment you saw me,
you throw a glorious smile that killed me.
I could linger at that glimpse forever,
savor the unexpected ecstasy, repeatedly.

Immersed in the infinite loop of escape.
I'll be like an unproductive useless garbage, Literally.
Just relive this for hours.
That interrupted flash wasn't me,
but thank you, unknown Ojisan next to me,
for somehow making this moment happen.
This makes me so happy, it hurts.
I'm so glad I recorded this, capture this moment,
best decision I ever made.
No memory can replicate every details.

【歌詞中譯】Billie Holiday - “Strange Fruit” 奇異果實

"Strange Fruit" A picture says a thousand words
不確定作者, 但這張圖相當完美的讓你一眼就理解它要講的是什麼。

基於內容主題的血腥悲慘, 實在很難讓人說"喜歡"或任何正面形容詞, 但這首詩詞的魔力確實令人難忘, 加上爵士名伶Billie Holiday沉痛憂鬱的詮釋, 成就了一首控訴兼具藝術的經典。
詩詞的完成度太高, 有點想挑戰又不敢出手亂翻, 用詞不深不難, 極簡卻鮮活的寫實/寫景/寫社會議題, 韻腳對仗工整, 令人起雞皮疙瘩的堪稱完美。
