Terracotta :is fine; once in someone’s :living room, :I saw you made in jade :with the light trapped inside. ::: * * * * * :In shops sometimes. :they seal you in plastic. :Even on a crowded, noisy street :you make :an area of stillness :around you. ::: * * * * * :I stand in a trance :watching the dance. :One leg lifted high, :or in the indolence :after sleep, :balancing your elephantine :head in your hand. :Renegade, clown, purveyor of dreams, :Dispeller of darkness, arbiter of destinies. :You stand just beyond :my angle of vision, :untamed, unclaimed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I Would Know You Anywhere」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
