(2013)
Twelve in numbered spin Once reaching double digits Feel the crisp brisk sweeps Sudden gentle remainders Subtle breath of orange array
Archaic toiling Through endless character streams To drown deeper still Beneath black and white waters Until I breathe symbolly
The words are muffled and shifting… The pounding won’t stop, the fraye… I hold onto a thread, a little blu… The tension is mine; it is a pain… Frenzied energy drains from my fin…
Is there something dark? Dark, dark, deep down inside me Something that keeps me Away from the center ring A divergent path indeed
Perplexity breathes Into the hearts of all men In heart beat matters We shy our true intent like An elephant in the vent
初めては いつも苦しい 二回には?
No words escape me The sun will rise tomorrow Or so I am told
Flickering between The realms of light and shadow Why not close the shades? Sleep’s alluring charm welcomes Despite such early hours!
Lofting lazily Enter murky depths of feel Quivering eyelids Two heavy from the weight of The thoughts that lead me astray
A sudden waking From formless blinking through dre… Please, just one more year! Surprised to glance the moon’s fac… An hour before her phase
Distractions of youth Parade like bright spring flowers Always on the mind Entangling my weak heart To the land of mud and ice
I guess it’s about that time again time for another pointless relapse Time, like a dusty album record Spinning, around and around on end I want the needle to break or veer…
A soft fluttering A pulse that pushes beyond Beating of the heart Oh to express the joys of, A soap opera here and there
A blank white tablet Fuzzy buzzing silences Click, click, click, and yet That single black divider keeps Blinking an endless cycle
Such an empty sky Countless pensive glances are Over and over Swallowed swift, before their time If only I could keep them
