失樂冰

By 陳僖儀

以汽水當沐浴露浮在一堆番梘泡
以雪條棍做木筏然後飄出一個島
讓自己失去了我就如高温中雪糕
心靈盡處 如冰箱一般温度
沒有被愛亦已經不要愛
獨個地過活我更吃得開
在低温室一個為我自己去喝采
習慣自閉亦已經不算問題 我只愛遊進雪櫃
還有雪了七天的冷飯 餓了自問仍可暖胃
習慣自閉避免多一串後遺 我的愛埋進雪櫃
繁華盛世 我只要屬於我的國土很細
對乳果説電視劇忘掉一噸噸苦惱
冷凍品有效十日留待一天天倒數
讓自己不再老化自然消失不算糟
心情愉快 誰都不急需傾慕
學會自愛亦已經足夠愛
負攝氏四度看見雪花開
自己孤僻一個問誰人話會有害
習慣自閉亦已經不算問題 我只愛遊進雪櫃
還有雪了七天的冷飯 餓了自問仍可暖胃
習慣自閉避免多一串後遺 我的愛埋進雪櫃
長年避世 我只要屬於我的四方果撫慰
就算自閉亦已經不算問題 我只愛遊進雪櫃
還有至愛新鮮的乳酪 讓我靈魂和感覺長埋地底
以後我便寄居冰天雪地 倦了便置身雪櫃
零下里 我縮細似酒米戀愛很小很細
很細 請讓我凍死隨青春浪費
隱閉 假若欠愛侶也不必撫慰
