One Man's Maple Moon: Bus Stop Tanka by Andrzej Dembonczyk

English Original

only she and I
at the bus stop
snowy evening
I warm up my hands
between her thighs

在公車站
只有她和我
這個雪夜
在她的兩腿之間
我溫暖了我的雙手

在公车站
只有她和我
这个雪夜
在她的两腿之间
我温暖了我的双手

  1. On a snowy night, falling snow transforms a patch of public space into a private world of passion. The suggestive power of this tanka relies on its sensual imagery.
