Statement

Tamatebako

Taro Urashima rides a turtle to Ryugu Castle,
but my wife rides a lump of iron and goes on a journey to a far city.
She goes alone. What kind of scenery she sees and what she thinks.
I can only imagine, at home, I am making a tamatebako that is filled with time and space.
Urashima Taro came back to the village with a Tamatebako,
but I'm waiting for my wife to return with this box.
