Yap! ponsky god

  YAP!– PONSKY GOD…

                In the temple,
                Icons of Christ are trampled.
                Peonies bloom.
                Masaoka Shiki.

The cave is empty.
Only forget-me-nots
On our bed.

   

A spark in the grass:
The scythe met the stone.
Japanese fog.

   

All night till dawn,
Cicadas rejoiced.
Could not close an eye.

   

By morning, a dream:
You knocking on my window.
Almond in the wind.

   

A bandit in the garden
Pulled out his sword too late.
Moonlight in his gaze.

(...)

All night, through and through,
“Cicadas sang.”
Could not awaken.
