A prayer before hunting.

The wedding merriment, the sadness,

We live in a world of miracles.
It’s all so meaningless.
Flowers dance, buds burst

I can bear to lose her.
This does the heart good.

And no song is heard
We are.

You’re not going to lose her.
But her body,

I loved her body, too.
Hold the lamp nearer.
Take the heartbeat.

You haven’t fallen in love

Thank you for those heartfelt words.
How great must thy need be,
