Nanao Sakaki

Blow out your candle! -see the stars twinkling.
Blow out the stars! -There, lightning.
Pick off your eyeballs! --sweet-heart-ocean-waves sounding.
Pluck your ears! -I smell of honey, milk, and wine's river.
Cut off your nose! -Kiss me please.
Shut your mouth! -my skin breathing, touching, talking.
Take off your skin! Muscles, intestines, all your bones
Hanging upside down
Homo sapiens sapiens
In a meat market
In a megalopolis
In a great century.
How much money
Would you pay
To have your body back?

-Nanao


If you have time to chatter
Read books
If you have time to read
Walk into mountain, desert and ocean
If you have time to walk
Sing Songs and dance
If you have time to dance
Sit quietly, you Happy Lucky Idiot

-Nanao

Rumi shatters something, and Nanao rushes in.
