嘉禾

                               你的名字让我着迷
                               我相信
                               你曾经生长过
                               岭南最美丽的蔬果

                               那些蓁蓁灼灼的夭桃
                               映红过
                               多少新嫁娘
                               和羞的脸庞

                               那些博得环美人
                               花枝乱颤的妃子笑 
                               也一定驱散过
                               侵袭苏学士的瘴气

                               那些枸杞叶辣椒叶南瓜叶番薯叶
                               滋润了千百年的男男女女
                               做你的村民是有福的
                               你源自农耕时期的名字如此美好

                               连20里外的城里人
                               也喜欢赶早
                               捎一把滴着露水的
                               来自嘉禾的骄傲的生菜

                               可是  几十年间
                               你的良田终于被
                               无休止撒下的化肥和农药
                               板结  戕杀
                               和中国任何一分土地一样没有例外

                               今天  
                               你又变身而为农贸批发市场
                               每天  
                               吞吐数万公斤的蔬菜瓜果 

                               可是  那些味道自然或虚假的蔬菜瓜果
                               也没几棵
                               是在你嘉禾的田地里
                               土生土长

                               不甘心的我
                               极目
                               企图搜出个被现代遗忘的角落
                               那里藤蔓青青  绿水人家绕

                               一条撕裂天空的高架
                               被白光反照   
                               将我的眼
                               灼伤
