Shen Haobo
NO TITLE
you don’t have to take part
of course you don’t dare since long ago
you don’t have to support it
of course you don’t dare either
but please don’t deride
please keep some respect
for the last bit of good
in your fearful heart
long tamed into submission
please don’t hang your head from far away
don’t say with a sigh
“what use is this?
this is no use.”
even if you have been steeped in desperation
you should know
this is not a question of useful or not.

《无题》
沈浩波
你可以不参与
当然你早已不敢
你可以不支持
你当然也不敢
但请不要嘲笑
请为你已经吓坏了的
驯服的内心保持
最后一丝善的尊严
更不要在远远的地方
垂头丧气地叹息
“这有什么用？
这没有用的”
即使你的内心早已被绝望浸泡
也应该知道
这不是有用和没用的问题
