Untranslatable Song

by DarkLight   Mar 7, 2014


Use your own hand for a pillow.
The sky uses clouds,
the earth its clods,
and the falling trees its own leaves.

That is the only way to hear the song without distance,
The song that doesn't enter the ear because it is in the ear,
The only song that is never repeated.

Everyone needs one untranslatable song.

    Use your own hand for a pillow.

    ^^I like this opening line. Nice imagery throughout as well, another good write.
