bamboo flute charms
bamboo flute charms
even those who walk upright
parlor painted such a warm ecru
a single goose egg would
have reason to be envious
three layers of paint- a showcase
for where we hide, may never be
revealed; this paint resists peeling-
but how the morning sun bounces
her spit shine against the eastern
wall of dining room; again, giving
reason for those who sit upright,
and for those who choose
to sit on bare maple seiza bench
shiken-taza!---one with the breeze--
like the queen, to her worker bees
