AUTOBIOGRAPHY 自傳
托姆岡恩The sniff of the real,that's嗅聞真實，這是
what I'd want to get 我想得到的
how it felt 那感覺怎樣
to sit on Parliment 在一個五月的黃昏
Hill on a May evening 坐在議會山上
studying for exams skinny為考試而用功，瘦乾乾的
seventeen dissatisfied 十七歲鬱鬱不樂
yet sniffing such 卻聞著那么
a potent air,smell of 一股濃烈的空氣，帶著
grass in heat from 白天太陽餘熱的
the day's sun青草味兒
I'd been walking through the damp 我慣常沿著池塘邊
rich ways by the ponds 潮濕而肥沃的小徑漫步
and how lay on the upper 不時躺在高處的
grass with Lamartine's poems 草地上讀拉馬丁的詩
Life seemed all 生活似乎都是
loss,and what was more 喪失，更甚的是
I'd lost whatever it was 在擁有之前
before I'd even had it 我就已失去了
