“从北京城区往北走，过了罗马环岛，有两个小水洼，被叫做罗马湖。不是罗马的湖，是因为湖被夹在两个村庄之间，一个叫罗各庄，一个叫马头村，于是罗马就有了一个湖，一个散发着悲哀而又滑稽气息的湖，一个被误读的泛滥着浪漫的湖，罗马不是罗马，是个湖。
“North of downtown Beijing, across the Roma roundabout, there are two small puddles we refer to as Roma Lake. We do not call it “the lake in Roma”, because the lake is in fact sandwiched between Rogezhuang and Matou villages. It is a lake that gives way to a sense of melancholy and ridiculousness, a lake that is full of misreading and romance. Roma is not Roma. It refers to a lake.

罗马是个湖。我在罗马湖呆了有那么好两年，大雾霾的天，影影绰绰永不出现的白日，却也是结成冰的湖面，有时也有三两个人默默的逡巡过去，往冰面扔块大石头，爆一声吼，也有胖胖的狗远远的跟着，但大多时候就我自己，绕着湖走，乏了就坐在石头上看着黑暗，本来就没有星星，天越发显得黑的时候，路灯就陡然的绽亮了，这时就有人踩着冰刀在湖面上转着跳起舞来，沉默而专注，悠然也忘我，路灯在冰刀上的反光特别刺眼，每一次经过都狠狠的晃一下。不知过了多久，便有更多的人加入进来，也有两个人一起滑的，岸边还响起了愤怒的叫喊声：
反抗和叛逆都是无效的，唯有另起炉灶！

I spent two years living beside the banks of the Lake. It was sometimes conceived as a frozen mass lying under the hazy sky. The sun would occasionally loom but never fully appeared. Two or three men could be seen prowling in its vicinity, who would at times throw stones on the ice, or let off a loud growl, followed by the barking of an pudgy dog. Most of the time I had the lake to myself, which I enjoyed by walking around or would rest sat on a lonely rock gazing into the darkness. At night, were it not for a ray of light emanating from the street lamps all would have gone dark, for not even the twinkle of distant stars could pierce the overcast sky. On one such night, I observed a stranger on ice skates dancing in circles, silently and absorbedly, freely and ecstatically. The reflection of this image under the street lamp was especially dazzling, giving off a bright flash. A little later, more people would join in, the two of them would glide together, with there were angry shouts echoing onto the bank:
Resistance and rebellion are ineffective, only starting all over again!

天更黑了，喧哗像一团团涌动的羊水，呱噪不安，空气中密布的是一些呓语者，一些谜语者，一个半语者，几个语焉不详的人，一个对立成两面的人，一个充满口误的人，还有一个酗酒者，搅拌着呢喃的倾诉，忽而纠缠，忽而又背离，浑浊缠绵，玄机萦绕，就像一个坍塌的暗含杀机的棋局，有哲人，也有诗人，还有两个小的快看不到脸的类人猿，捉对互搏。
It’s getting darker. I picked up sounds of flowing water, gurgling and disturbing. The air was thick with many a somnambulant, jabbering their half riddles, a man full of slips of the tongue, and a few alcoholics, all mumbling their nonsense in the lingering mystery around, from entanglement to deviation, like a collapse of implied dangers in chess. There were philosophers, poets, and two apes who were too small for me to make out their faces, all wrestling with one and another.

忽然砰的一声，一个巨大的礼花在雾气中绽开，幽幽的撒落几颗慢慢淡去的星火，这个黑。
6:50 我掸掉裤子上的尘土缓缓向画室走去，回望罗马湖，虽曲终人散，却也余音绕梁。"
Then the sudden deafening bang of fireworks, a magnificent array of color rippled through the misty sky, dropping a few faint and fading stars.
At 6:50pm, I dusted off my trousers and walked slowly towards my studio. Looking back at Roma Lake, though the music had ended, it still lingered."
