emulate the master

Night; and once again,
the while I wait for you, cold wind
turns into rain.

* * *
I want to sleep
Swat the flies
Softly, please

Masaoka Shiki





view from the room



Maddening distance
a gap, a break, a hole grips
hollows in your eyes


* * *
sweet propensities
and impetuous withdrawals,
You! Beast of the moon
