2:37 PM - Comfort in strangers


TAXICAB CONFESSIONS




每次獨自上的士,總會跟司機聊上幾句。雖然是十數、二十分鐘短短的旅途,感覺一兩句的閒話便能驅走路上的寂寞。的士司機多數喜歡賭博,我想這可能是在沉悶工作之中的出路。譬如在星期三,多數司機都會收聽賽馬,問他們一兩句,便會滔滔不絕的投訢騎師如何不濟,也不會嗇惜告訴你下兩場誰會有機會勝出。星期六,講波經更投是其所好。我不會投注,但喜歡他們真摰的表情,甚至有時激動的聲線。

不止在香港,跟大陸和台灣的的士司機說的話更多。不過大陸人最喜歡問你每個月的收入多少,而台灣就千萬不要跟他們談政治。除此之外,風花雪月,真可以是無事不可對人言。

電視上播出的節目,是讓演員假扮的士司機,逗車上乘客說話,偷拍整個過程。令人驚訝的是乘客的坦白及大膽,有夫婦大談他們的性遊戲,中年男仕說他的性經驗,變性的妓女道出她的戀愛生活,大膽露骨的同時,也滿足了觀眾的偷窺慾。

其實寫blog的感覺也是差不多,有朋友跟我說過,這是個虛擬世界,不必太過認真。然,就是因為大家都不認識對方,更容易說出心中話。我不認識你,我反而更能暢所欲言。當然,我明白縱使在虛擬的世界裏,我仍是步步為營,戰戰兢兢地篇寫這小小的blog。記錄生活點滴之餘,也來個小小的confession。雖然,大多數的寫作都是言不及義,更諻論談個人的性經驗之類。But baby, I am trying.

記得王菲有一首只愛陌生人,可能就是這個意思 。

十分讚同, 其實好多時寫的感覺, 日常反而會鮮與人提到. 而一直寫都是因為這種真....

just write whatever we desire with due respect for others (those who happen to know the u here : P). that's already fine.

Sometimes ... its a desperate feeling, nowhere to go, nobody to talk to, this is a way out ...
