(2013)
A tanka written on how friendships can spring up almost anywhere if you give them the chance.
The spotlight glares down Bright, bright, sight, sight My cloak swiftly surrounds White, White, Swish, Swish, The fabric shell billows but stays
Self-expressional Crooked poster on the wall Self-intentional Will you shatter, will you fall? Who will fix your frame of old?
Such an empty sky Countless pensive glances are Over and over Swallowed swift, before their time If only I could keep them
A stone for a head A dauntingly fragile nose Sudden convulsions To lay my head down in peace My vestigial heart begs
Tiny flashing lights Figures entwine together Closer and closer ‘closer than ever’ they say Beside our computer screens
愛の歌 空に隠れた それなのに この忘れない 音、まだ響く
Five points to this as stated thus… Five; to pick up things once falle… Four; to grasp all things from wir… Three; to greet, to cheat, and din… Two; to bind wild lovers with gold…
Seasonal ill’n Ado, ado, soft achoos Cool wind seeps through me
Distractions of youth Parade like bright spring flowers Always on the mind Entangling my weak heart To the land of mud and ice
My White Cloak Part one: Place Entering day by day (1) Into a place to grow and stay Into the foundational walls of old
Archaic toiling Through endless character streams To drown deeper still Beneath black and white waters Until I breathe symbolly
Foggy morning sky Your veil remains untouched by The flags of Autumn How cruel of you to kidnap Such keen keepsakes of your kin
Perplexity breathes Into the hearts of all men In heart beat matters We shy our true intent like An elephant in the vent
Fresh Seattle rain Cleanser more of soul than streets I envy that sound Such simple pure harmony Don’t forget that umbrella!
Words without meaning An open mouth seems empty Trying to express Something that dances lightly Forefront of a clouded heart
