more 'ku train senryu ..



Grendel

monsters don't scare me/
one little tiny bit/
shoot 'em dead in the eyes


shoes

orthopedic flip flops
mine were always two-toned
saddled with long miles



truck

take a no wheel drive
hoofin it, better for me ~
the environment



echo

an echo carries
your name on its lips etching
out sides of mountains



sparkle

his soul sparkled
through deep azabache eyes
in a moonless night



zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

sleep keeps me awake
I fake dream by smiling wide
wishing on a sheep



shade

shadows change the shape/
of things to come flying in/
shapeshifting color



gray

gray skies opened up
dumped water in ropes on streets
people danced in them



swim

swimming in pearl light
dreaming of sea otters
smiling at the moon



patience

I can wait until
stars fold themselves into sky
then, you're mine again



glint

flashes reflected
eyes angry at the full moon
spilling promises



handle

your eyes like shadows
lurking lost behind dark/
glasses that hide beauty

your eyes a beacon
a way to the future past/
present ~ a holding

handles help steady
ones way in the pitch darkness/
opening the way
