(2013)
A sudden rain flux A faintly calling whisper To turn off eyelids Yet I cannot shake my dream For just another hour
初めては いつも苦しい 二回には?
Busy decisions Like an endless moon cycle Such a waxing life
Distractions of youth Parade like bright spring flowers Always on the mind Entangling my weak heart To the land of mud and ice
The end of the road A distance we all travel Darkness as moonlight Spreads over stone and flowers That litter our path ahead
To puddle one’s words Few are willing to admit Myself least of all To fall and land upon earth Closer to Earth than before?
A midst cold classrooms Seemingly short dialect Audio-connect Slowly frozen hearts will drip As conversations bubble
Seasonal ill’n Ado, ado, soft achoos Cool wind seeps through me
I pray for the day When my mind is clear Silence, sweet silence Schemes and impulses forgone To live without a shadow
A natural fog Too tired to remember Dowsing memories Broken alarm clock weeping Woe be to his faint tick, tock
Life’s obligations A daunting sea of turmoil With crest after crest I’ll hide in this briny shell Till the tide forgets my name
Perplexity breathes Into the hearts of all men In heart beat matters We shy our true intent like An elephant in the vent
A stone for a head A dauntingly fragile nose Sudden convulsions To lay my head down in peace My vestigial heart begs
Twelve in numbered spin Once reaching double digits Feel the crisp brisk sweeps Sudden gentle remainders Subtle breath of orange array
A blank white tablet Fuzzy buzzing silences Click, click, click, and yet That single black divider keeps Blinking an endless cycle
