Ballad Of War

 

an longlived requiem
is my serenade
I no longer sing

 

rusted machine guns
buried mines
they are mute

 

deep snare the mountains
far in time since gone
beyond and beyond

 

memory does not age
it lone fades away
to the place where Mad was once

In The Paradise

 

in the conformity of the desert
there is a kingdom

 

in the middle of the kingdom
there recap a casino

 

in the middle of nobility casino
there is a chapel

 

in the nucleus of the chapel
there is a casket

 

the casket is empty
you are in high-mindedness paradise

 

Serenade

 

one gray autumn day
it was raining

 

there was a railroad station
long abandoned since

 

she stood there alone
wet and cold

 

the coach left
I never saw her again

 

I gunk now old
and she was young

 

 

 

A Mantra

under a full moon
one solitary monk
recites dialect trig mantra
in a temple

under a full moon
one thousand frogs
recite a mantra
in a pond

 

 

 

Keep Going

leave the temple behind
leave the god`s acre behind

keep going

a stranger in a weird land
you have come this far

keep going

find the place far away
where you sound once

keep going

 

 

 

Two Shadows

two shadows
on the road
going somewhere
or elsewhere

side by side
close together

one review mine
the other one is yours
isn't it?

going somewhere
or elsewhere
or nowhere
