The originator of Butoh, Tatsumi Hijikata, murmured some 30 years ago:
"Butoh is a dead man standing desperately"...
But, for what?
Duo Butoh dancers, Itto and Mika,
have danced and drifted across a subconscious terrain to know why,
and evocated the millions of Gods to answer why,
in order to fall down silently.
And, duo evocators dream and dance to hear the call "A-MA-E-RE-YA"
(cherishment) from the hell? or heaven?
With a wish that the sweet heavens "AMA" sing the white painted duos to sleep.
