詩人來賓 Guest Poet： 可洛﹑呂永佳
聽詩人前輩說：在八十年代，在街上隨便投一磈石頭便可以砸到一位詩人。前陣子和朋友打網球，他們得知我是舉辦詩會活動，很是驚訝：「原來香港還有詩人！」可見，詩人變成是社會的希有動物，快要絕種，像國寶熊貓一樣需要細心呵護，尤其是新進詩人。
可洛和呂永佳都是浸會大學中文系畢業，可洛（原名梁偉洛）曾獲「零四年度中文文學創作獎」新詩組冠軍，寫詩又寫小說，詩集有《幻聽樹》。呂永佳得了「二零零六年度中文文學創作獎」新詩組冠軍，詩集有《無風帶》。二人更與友人合辦文學雜誌《月台》，目的是為文字愛好者提供一個分享的平台。
十一月讓我們共踏月台吧！

Guest Poet： Sleepy Lok, Eric Lui
It is heard from poets in the older generation that you can knock off a poet using a stone in the 80s. Some days ago, my tennis mates reacted surprisingly when they know I organize poetry event, “I never know there are poets in Hong Kong!” Poets, especially young poets, become the endangered animals in the society, going to extinct, like the national heirloom pandas in need of delicate care.
Sleepy Lok and Eric Lui are graduates from the Hong Kong Baptist University. Sleepy Lok (Leung Wai Lok) won the 1st prize in Chinese Literature 2004 in poetry group. He writes poetry and novel. As for Eric Lui, he won the 1st prize in Chinese Literature 2006 in poetry group. They, together with other graduates from the Baptist University, co-founded a literary magazine called “Platform” to provide an arena for sharing and publishing.

時間是夾著尾巴的毛蟲 — CYK
（小風）
時間是夾著尾巴的毛蟲
蟲身印著的花紋，刻著
那與妳我無關的字句
毛蟲夾著尾巴捉弄尾巴
只圍著無限世界轉一個
無限的圈
我說我分不懂
過去，現在，未來
妳握著我的手
教我畫夾著尾巴的毛蟲
長長的瘦瘦的
像觸摸不定的界線
妳說毛蟲在圈中拯教自己
是cycle。不是circle
毛蟲打開失去的眼睛
在無限中轉不出有限
所以不是circle。而是
cycle。這根本是一個
五個英文單字的誘惑
妳重回無垠世界
我只好畫瘦長的毛蟲
夾著尾巴捉弄尾巴

詩人來賓 Guest Poet： 葉英傑 (同時分享葉某的詩作)
傑克是法國詩壇，甚至是世界詩壇的巨人，他的詩被學童唸，並成了日常語，就連法國歌后也唱過他的詩。有人說他是法國版的白居易，但在法國人心目中他的地位是更高。他寫的《話語》（Paroles），行雲流水，就像咖啡館裡的說書人一樣，向你道出一幀幀人間眾生相。
Poetry in Music
(Polly Ho)
The idea of poetry in music is not something new but it is something new to Kubrick Poetry. We did try reading poems in the companion of guitar causally before but never had we done it like a performance like this time. And you know what? Madeleine, the poet, Eugene, the musician, they jammed they rocked and they shined.
We dimmed the light, lightened the candles, set up the projector and the mic stand. Audience were seated. The September Kubrick Poetry began with a brief introduction of Madeleine who is so multi-talented. She is a poet, a photographer, an editor and a publisher. She is from America and has been living in Hong Kong for more than 20 years. She began to read very early and naturally because her father is a professor and there are books everywhere home. She could causally pick up a book in the toilet and read. And her poetry writing embarked when she left home and started writing letters with her family. How importance is poetry in her life? She said, “It is part of my life.” When asked to choose what she sees herself first, a poet or a photographer, she chose not to choose. Being a poet and a photographer, Madeleine’s poems exemplify the Chinese saying “pictures in poems, poems in pictures” (詩中有畫，畫中有詩). Just a few lines and she has already outlined a vivid picture. She photographs using words, such as “To Nature” and the colo(u)r series. On the other hand, her photographs are faceless and unrecognizable. “My photos are never realistic. You cannot recognize the places in the photo, like the first one in the powerpoint. When I take a photo of a person, I perhaps take a photo of the leg instead of the face.”
After the talking part, we moved to the long-awaited and the most gripping part: poetry in music. Eugene patted the drum rhythmically, then Madeleine jammed in by reading the first poem of the day “the act of walking” followed by “winter tree”. Then she read “North” without any instrumental accompaniment. Under the title “North” is a photo taken by Yank Wong(黃仁逵), one of the artists whom she respects and admires. She continued her singing of “eyes”, “cloud of sound” and “blue and wide”. For “blue and wide”, it is a poem written in remembrance of a colleague at Oxfam, Wong Yuenling (黃琬玲，1958-2008), who died of liver cancer in January 2008. Wong yuenling is a social activist and a poet. A circle of friends published her collection of poems “Think I'll Sit down and Write a Letter” (坐下來寫封信). A dear friend of Wong Yuenling, Tsui Cheong Ming (徐昌明) , read the title poem “Think I'll Sit down and Write a Letter” in Chinese and sang it along with the accompaniment of guitar. Then Madeleine read the English version translated by Jacob Wong (王慶鏘).
The climax of the day is the singing of “To Nature”. By now, everyone was into the event, into the poems and music. We relaxed, closed the eyes and let the poetry and music flow into the consciousness and unconsciousness. People come and go. Day falls and returns but nature stays.
Madeleine read her latest poem “I pay for them to touch me”, as she always does. The poem is written after a four-hand massage experience in Thailand. Then she gave each of the audience a postcard of COLORing and a poem that she likes.
Madeleine has a very touching voice and, I must say, she has a way with reading and singing. Every poem is beautiful when she reads. I guess it is the reason why she is the first one pops up in my mind when I want to try out poetry in music. The primitive idea of poetry in music meant to be reading but not singing. I only realized this when we did a little bit of “practice” in Madeleine’s home. Anyhow, it is very true that the possibility of poetry is more than we expected.
