to gaze in wonder
to gaze in wonder
the moment that death approaches
within her presence
2017
Tokyo subway ride
Tokyo subway ride
compression down in the pit
butt rub with strangers
a bamboo forest
a bamboo forest
with wind tickling the leaves
ripples on water
wander in the sun
wander in the sun
tasting samples of the fruit
sake happiness
evening arrives
evening arrives
broken by a lone streetlight
a girl waits nearby
quiet descending
quiet descending
among the rocks and the stone
a little boy cries
revel in the sun
revel in the sun
and stand among the cherry blossoms
while they drift on by
anticipation
anticipation
those savory aromas
waiting for a bit
storming the castle
storming the castle
to be beaten by the stairs
an old man whimpers
a chirping is heard
a chirping is heard
walking the Nightingale floors
a sea of humanity
