Always towards the Sun By Yuan Changming

Always towards the Sun
 
Long long before long ago, Earth
Was originally set within a koru
 
Unfurling at every antlike moment
Directly towards the sun, until
         Now it is too overloaded
With evil spirits & viruses
 
To continue revolution as it
          Tries to return to itself
