https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oygxbPM5Hc Beautifully read, with a real understanding of the philosophical meaning of this poem. Here is my translation.
A soul on the beach
is studying philosophy.
The soul asks the body:
– Who tied us together?
The body says:
– I need to tan my knees.
The soul asks the body:
– Is it true,
that we don’t exist?
The body says: – I am tanning my knees.
The soul asks the body:
– Is it in you or in me
that dying begins?
The body laughs.
It has tanned its knees.
