虚数 瑟哈德里
宇宙毁灭时剩下的山
不大也不小。
大小是
相对而言,
宇宙毁灭时剩下的山
能与什么作比较?
意识察觉到而且得到安抚。
灵魂爬上碎石堆。
灵魂,
像负一的平方根,
不可能有什么用途。

Imaginary Number
BY VIJAY SESHADRI
The mountain that remains when the universe is destroyed
is not big and is not small.
Big and small are
comparative categories, and to what
could the mountain that remains when the universe is destroyed
be compared?
Consciousness observes and is appeased.
The soul scrambles across the screes.
The soul,
like the square root of minus 1,
is an impossibility that has its uses.
