Boryeong Mud Festival
in the mud
childhood
Boryeong Mud Festival
one colour
one world
Boryeong Mud Festival
murky too the history
of korea
Boryeong Mud Festival
all the men carved
in grey
Boryeong Mud Festival
the group photo
sparkling teeth
Boryeong Mud Festival
saying we are mud anyway
he laughs and plunges in
Boryeong Mud Festival
on his head
a grey pagoda
Boryeong Mud Festival
the sea too
a shade of grey
Boryeong Mud Festival
travelling miles to
get ourselves dirtied
Boryeong Mud Festival
travelling back to
childhood again
