Follow the
order

that they once had

their coarse lines
of hardened clay
so that then
it’s possible to see

on the table
engraved

on the funerary
vessels

the message
that was there

without your hearing
of it

until you found it

Last RT: I've never seen building-shaped Haniwa before, but they sort of remind me of a cross between Han funerary sculptures (top row) and the sorts of houses you might find in, say, Nias (bottom row).
