I am Refugee

看也看不見.聽也聽不清

那一年

我的一家,在官兵槍聲下,倉惶逃上來香港的船

只有五歲的姐姐,被人推倒,踐踏,裂了三條肋骨

生命雖被救回,裂痕傷疤仍在…

那年,我不到一歳

那一年

在亞朔的海岸上

二千多年前,使徒保羅,在那兒登船…逃避羅馬官兵的追逼…

那一年

在香港海岸線旁

漂來了幾艘船

來自越南

「自由何價?」

他/她們呼喊著

那一年

2017年四月

在亞朔古城

遙望愛琴海

我聽到哭聲

See, but not see, Hear, but not hear!

That year

my family, under the threat of gunfire from the back,

desperately, fled on to the boat to Hong Kong.

My sister was just five

being pushed down, trampled on, and three ribs broken.

Her life was saved, but the broken scar are still here

That year, I was not even one …

That year

on Assos Coast

two thousand years ago, Paul the apostle, there he was on board

to escape from the prosecution of Roman soldiers…

That year

on the Hong Kong Coast

a few boats drifted

from Vietnam.

“What is the cost of freedom?”

they shouted…

That year

April 2017

in Assos,

gazing into the Aegean Sea,

I heard the sound of weeping…
