At the China Chef
She sits alone, jacket hugging
her shoulders, sipping tea, picking
at scallops with straw mushrooms,
white rice, wondering why she came
here again, here where she and John
dined on shrimp drenched in sweet
and sour sauce, where she taught him
to hold chopsticks. As she eats, she turns
pages in Good Housekeeping, tries
to read another paragraph of this month's
novella. Must be a sad story,
the waiter thinks, seeing her tears.
在美华酒家
她独自坐着, 外套拥抱着
她的肩膀，啜着茶，挑着
干贝草菇，白米饭，
不知道她为什么又来到
这里，在这里她同约翰
吃过浸泡在糖醋里的
虾，在这里她教过他
如何使用筷子。在她吃的时候
她翻动《好管家》的书页，试着
阅读这个月中篇小说的
另一节。定必是个悲惨故事，
侍者想，看到她的眼泪。
