穿透一堵墙
厚重的实体
如同人文历史的远古之墙
横亘于人我之间

人我之间的这堵墙
阻隔交通资讯的传播
同样的人类
不同的语言

不同的语言
是人类自己的各种的墙
无形无色透明不见
但是可以覆盖天地

信息的技术
可以传达的这些符号
在异域国土里面
失去了原本的内涵

这些空洞的符号
构成人类间厚重的墙体
触摸不到的墙体
虚幻般的现实

穿透一堵墙的努力
可能枉费一生

 
Penetrates a wall

Penetrates a wall
Penetrates this thick concrete substance
It is a remote ancient wall as humanity itself and its history
This wall spans between people

This wall exists between people
It obstructs the spread of traffic and information
For same human kind
There are different languages

Different languages
They are a variety of walls of human being themselves
They have no shape colorless transparent and invisible
However, they can cover even sky and earth

The technology of information
It can transport those symbols
Those symbols transported in this foreign land
They have lost the meaning of originals

Those empty symbols
They are the components of such thick and solid body of walls
You cannot touch this body
It is a reality but seemed unreal

The endeavours of penetrating a wall
Can cost one's whole life with no result after all
