能見——具體位置中的感知

「2022.2.22星期二，我帶了一塊卵石登上成都飛往澳門的NX189航班。從一種制度去往另一種制度，一路查看各種證件，在這特殊的疫情時期是否保持距離才是最安全的呢。信步街頭，葡萄牙遺留建築顯示了其在色彩上與成都的大不同；除此之外，番茄牛腩套飯可以配上奶茶，雖不懂老闆能否聽懂鄰桌的閒談（可能是印尼語），但卻能隨意從粵語切換成漢語禮貌的問：點些什麽；走出『新明記咖啡』低頭是『門口土地財神』，抬眼望去是十字架，所有的一切都能在這個“小島”上找到自己的容身之處，而這背後都有著各自漂泊。人世間的煙火在這孤島上裊裊升起，目之所及，全是過往；我又何嘗不是從一座孤島走向另一座孤島；適時，聽聞遠方戰火，但願天下太平。」

‘2022.2.22. Tuesday. I brought a pebble and boarded flight NX189 from Chengdu to Macao. Travelling from one system to another system, I had my travel documents checked along the way. Is it the safest way to keep a distance during this special pandemic period? Walking the streets of Macao, I noticed the colors of the Portuguese architecture in the city was different from those in Chengdu; besides, a meal set of beef brisket with tomato included a milk tea. Although I didn’t know whether the owner could understand the conversation taking place in the next table (probably they spoke Indonesian), the owner skillfully switched from Cantonese to Mandarin and asked, “What would you like to order?”; after leaving Eatery San Meng Kei, I discovered a small shrine to Tudigong (God of the Soil and Ground) when I lowered my head, and I saw a cross when I looked up. Everything can find its own place on this “island”, and they each lead a wandering life behind the scenes. With the slow rise of the smoke and fire of the human world, everything was in the past as far as the eye can see; I am just walking from one lonely island to another; I heard a war is taking place in a faraway location, and may the world be at peace.’
