Holiday Leftovers

Two unwritten poems from back in December...

Matsuho no Sato Rotemburo


Awaji Ohashi gilded

like a LiteBrite set.

Colors dance on the water

as naked fishermen

enter the bath.





Kakure Nembutsu


Monks dance the forbidden dance

Bouncing from foot to foot,

clad in orange,

like atonal Hare Krishnas.




On the turntable: The Beatles, "Magical Mystery Tour"

On the reel table: "Drunken Angel" (Kurosawa, 1948)
