Shanxi Man Shanxi man, I live in a cave; warm in winter, cool in summer painted once by a foreigner who likes Qikou. My hill is soft, part of the Loess Plateau right beside the Yellow river water sometimes high, sometimes low. I grow corn and smoke and drink white wine. I pray to the Buddha, Amitabha is my mantra and so far nothing too bad, you know! I'm going to a wedding now in Taiyuan Welcome again to my cave house in Shanxi. My best friend is getting married to a beautiful girl from Linyi.�
