Witness


Can you imagine, with slow motion, that a patriot soldier, knowing not exactly the reason to the war, held firmly to his rifle and took aim at the enemies outside of this opening, and, just right before he pulled his trigger, a grenade was thrown in and, even before he had time to scream but had only his eyes wildly big, immediately made his spirit hang above his scattered body.

And that, was just one of the many stories this opening, a silent witness of history, can tell.

想像一下:
在一個時間放慢的情境下,有一位愛國的軍人,雖不太甚解這整場戰爭的原因,卻仍緊緊地握著他的來福槍,試著瞄準在這開口外的敵人。但正當他準備好要扣板機時,有一顆手榴彈從這開口被扔了進來;在這位軍人還不能驚呼之前,卻只能瞪大眼睛盯著那顆手榴彈之時,他的靈魂已經飄到了那殘碎身體的上方。

而這樣的一個故事,也只不過是這個開口 ─ 一默默的歷史見證者 ─ 所能述說的故事之一。
