生命的绝响

Yesterday, a 53-year-old wife and mother fatally shot herself soon after faxing a letter to her mortgage company saying that by the time they forclosed on her house that day, she would be dead.

When interested buyers arrived at the property in Taunton, about 35 miles south Boston, Mladeruma's body was still inside with a note told her husband, John, and 24-year-old son to "take the [life] insurance money and pay for the house."


一声轰响
令死神惊恐
让病魔也感黯然
她用自己的手
将年轻而健壮的生命之门
关上

阳光渗进她刚擦洗过的窗户
不再炎热
面对蜂拥而至的风
她一语不发
苍白的笑意
在荧光灯下
渐渐冰凉

她想
等夜幕来临
再熄去那一盏灯火
她会指点她的爱的人去看
黑暗星空里如花一般开放的
她一生的尊严
还有她用唯一的生命
换来的希望
