 it grows hazy,
the moon in my cup--
white sake

 wind from the prairie
dries my sleeves--
all these purple flowers
bearing thorns

 just hold tight
and lean into the wheel--
southerly winds

 tall grass, dry and amber--
I release the cicada
I kept in a jar

 
once across
a young man yearns for home--
shadows lenghthening

 BIA 701--
through static on the radio
beating of a drum

with a tayu's face
we talk about the weather--
first spring gusts

 zazen--
the dog in the next room
quietly snoring

 the last open water
a city rising above--
Raspberry Island

 birds fly in
from incredible angles--
sunlight's shimmer on snow

 

thoughtless
a field mouse tests the air--
Buddha's chair
 
algorithms quickened
the laptop warms its core
 
o' sweet Valentine
this tweet goes out directly   
from my heart to you
 
a couple's quiet cuddle
under the kotatsu
