Japan exports haiku. prophet Basho
would compose haiku without words, writing light, sound, writing smell, writing touch,
taste. feeling image, drawing human despair, humor. pages cascade, white jonquil birds.
Tokyo raining light, drizzle misty.
giant banners, piano, massive stone majesty, vista. young freedom would prevail today.
paper folding petal blossom white origami poems float outside their singing image.
grace, empress poise, honoring tears, honoring jokes great history dream writing years.
world tourism, haiku, nuclear power.
awake, huddled rainy golfers, awake, breathe light, dance through urban subways happy.
smile without prior written paper consent today. white flowers cause traffic chaos. |
