アマビエ
Give illness a face,
frightening and funny,
a strong-smelling
charm of the
sea.
We wanted
a faith healer,
a gatekeeper,
but got instead what we forgot - how to live with death.
Between
sickness and health,
island wisdom
still rises from the sea.
Amabie
meets spirits and earth,
dives
into
hope,
lives underneath
this epidemic,
in our dreams.
Seems she's especially
seen in hard times.
Why not?
We always welcome
a storyteller
who makes
fun of our
scared faces,
our races for cures.
