A grimace

Alban

After prayer
A single flame
A silent note
In infinity

Hmph 2

So idyllic
My innnocence
Now dissonance
reveals its pain

On entering

Dementia gone
A widow now
A hand extends
To lose her tears

Long Day

lowering the blinds
the waning moon
surprises me
from privacy

So On

full moon rises
along the street
even lamposts
bow their heads

Tea Bowl

tea bowl in hand
all reflection
green tea surface
my idle mind

Summer 2

A blemished head
Flesh to the waist
Hair on belly
Why again why

with the summer rain
romance of honeysuckle
sadly washed away

Ink

Against the sky
The leaves and seeds
Await my brush
And betrayal
