Bad Haiku

                           

Jigoku Gokuraku wa kokoro ni ari.

Protected by the Seven Lucky Gods,

a name

carries the burden of an epicanthic fold

within

from heart to temple

a solitary Shikoku pilgrim

walks his path

lost

in translation

through

fleeting

visions of Sakura trees

turning from pink to mono no aware

as their beautiful, yet imparmanent bloom will soon be

falling

at his feet

a secret japanese garden

painted

with koi ponds, pagodas and Yoshida fire and kabuki dances

and dragons

and danger

awakened

in perfect order with all things in the Universe

yet strangely taken out of context,

invisible Geisha plays a Taishogoto harp

new worlds and ancient empires attached

expand

in collective chant

“Om” echoes and Satori light

inside

blood sparkles

differently

a name –

and she suddently exists

or perhaps not

“They call me Ruluka”

                       

No name dress

No name purse

No name boots

Felt hat from my father’s wardrobe

Green Eyed Kisses,
