Move performance bed

on the lawn under the tree

lay down paper, wet sheet thrown down & hair on bed - all wet down

I am carried out & placed on the paper

feathers, hair & dirt are sprinkled on me & on the paper

my hair is matted with mud & twisted out - meduca like

ink bottles & mud buckets are placed around me.
