靈感是什麼？像狐狸嗎？

英國詩人泰德‧休斯(Ted Hughes)曾寫過一首詩〈思緒之狐〉：

《The Thought-fox》

〈思緒之狐〉

I imagine this midnight moment's forest:	我想像一片深夜的樹林：
Something else is alive	有個東西蠢蠢欲動
Beside the clock's loneliness	時鐘孤獨地滴答
And this blank page where my fingers move.	我的手指在空白的稿頁上遊移
Through the window I see no star:	我望向窗外看不見星星
Something more near	有個東西漸漸靠近
Though deeper within darkness	雖然還隱沒在沉沉黑暗中
Is entering the loneliness:	正要加入孤獨的陣容：
Cold, delicately as the dark snow,	纖細清冷如幽茫的雪
A fox's nose touches twig, leaf;	那狐狸的鼻尖觸嗅著枝葉
Two eyes serve a movement, that now	眼觀四方 動一動
And again now, and now, and now	再動一動 又再動一動
Sets net prints into the snow	雪地上印出整齊的步痕
Between trees, and warily a lame	在樹叢中謹慎地一拐一拐
Shadow lags by stump and in hollow	那影子緩緩穿過樹樁和窪坑
Of a body that is bold to come	勇敢的身軀踽踽前行
Across clearings, an eye,	越過了空地 那束眼光
A widening deepening greenness,	越近越寬 碧綠而幽深
Brilliantly, concentratedly,	燦爛明亮 凝注專心
Coming about its own business	朝自己的目標前進
Till, with a sudden sharp hot stink of fox	直到 隨著一股驀然刺鼻的狐騷
It enters the dark hole of the head.	它鑽進腦裡的黑洞
The window is starless still; the clock ticks,	窗外依然不見星星 時鐘滴答
The page is printed.	稿頁就此完成。
