我祈求不放弃的希望
作者: 心漫(Cathy Xinman )

我想象的人迹罕至
在被隔离过又放开
扎根在内室又流散在时空
我们的2020
你们的2021
他们的2022
属兔的2023

我那有血有肉的土耳其啊
我我甚至不确定她是否还活着
“她脸色苍白、冰冷、沉默
她的四肢是蓝色的”
她布满了瘀伤
围观者欢呼
她是婴儿 Aya
在叙利亚废墟中
她104 小时被大地震掩埋
人们哭泣又拥抱
我祈求奇迹
我我左边眼睛流泪
我右边眼睛看

那在瞬间消失了的
那在坍塌中摧毁的
请不要再补充
我穿着UGG棉鞋和始祖鸟雪衣
对法新社说,对CNN说,对CTV说
我的心不接受
我爱的土耳其人民啊
不单是因为您全国书店
选上我的英文诗集
选上了我的中文诗集
我感激,我从来没有到达过
我想象一个爱诗的民族
让诗飞翔的国度

我祈求希望从来不破灭
我祈求疯狂救援仍在继续
我祈求糟糕已过去
我祈求未来和现在都不再受苦
我祈求幸存者不再渺茫
无家可归者
情况不再紧急不再急迫
那在废墟中挖掘的
希望不破灭
等待不焦急啊

我诗人的能力已失去了想象
苦苦挣扎的城镇
孤立的人啊

熟悉战区紧急情况的
乌克兰救援人员从战区飞去了
我们帮助土耳其
我看到城市消防人员也飞去了
我看到土耳其旗帜与加拿大旗帜一起
那是捐助团结互助收集物资之处
噩梦中的噩梦啊需要更多的援助
你需要更多
我祈求更多的援助正在路上
正在路上
是的
但还需要更多,更多
我的心发颤
我的手发抖
我需要救济
那为生命努力的土耳其人民叙利亚人民
拯救没有阻碍
拯救生命和重建啊

悲剧骇人听闻
严寒、缺乏药物、缺乏毯子
缺乏必需品
威胁生命
几乎一无所有的人们啊
我祈求急需的食物、衣服和住所
数百万儿童急需的食物、住所和保暖衣物
我祈求这一切都不是冰山一角

我祈求避难所
我祈求温暖
祈求爱和希望
祈求擦去脸上的泪水
祈求紧急呼吁
祈求争分夺秒
祈求无人被遗忘
我祈求人类的勇气
我祈求不放弃的希望
天寒地冻,我打碎我的心
来祈祷
我祈求痛苦可以用语言形容
颤抖的境遇啊
我祈求安慰和爱

North Vancouver singer-songwriter Duck Lau

北温音乐家刘祖德从小培养作曲才华

当Pancouver透过Zoom视频会议连系上刘祖德(Duck Lau)时,他正处于漆黑的环境中。那是因为他的北温住家正好停电,让这名香港出生的创作歌手的地下室录音室黑暗到伸手不见五指。
