/ Song: Light Strikes the Ground
Sunlight strikes the ground
It might not be
that my chest hurts
What if it does hurt?
Sunlight strikes the ground
On this ground
someone buried sheep bones
someone transported trunks, pottery, and stones
someone saw a pig herdsman after long wandering
Sunlight strikes the ground. Still it strikes the ground
On this ground
there are so many maidens
as if I really have so many daughters
As if I’ve really been happy
using a scoop
using red beans, spinach, and turnips
to raise them up
Sunlight strikes the ground
