SKY EARTH

SKY EARTH is a time-space in which Spirit recalls matter.

WHAT IS THE BODY MADE OF

What is the body made of?
A part of me travels
through Time and different worlds.

What is the body made of?
A part of me never leaves.

The body will burn
The essence will continue

And the sight extends beyond the visible

What is the body made of?
A part of me never leaves.

SKY
Once when I was a child
someone was singing a song
in which the sky above me
was coming down lower
and lower to reach.

Once when there was no day
what did the sky do?
sprouted within me
and open its eyes to see me
to make me see it

Once I woke up inside of me,
the song got thinner in the sky above me…

Where is the child so I can reach it?

Once when I was a child…
