While the church bell rung and the baggages came

While the two are alike as the oceans and rain

The hungry dog and the garbage can

Are alike as the mouth being fed by the hand

And the heavy stone and the weightless leaf

Are alike as the ivories in pianos and teeth

An infant's crib and the funeral hearse

Are alike as the blessings

Twin sister, the curse

Should you not understand these words that you hear

What's like understanding them perfectly clear

'Cross naked flesh and the bead of sweat

Are alike as the thirsty's mirage that is wet

And the seeds I am and the soil you are

Are alike as my loving

How different you are!
