87th stone and it's o.k

chaffinches
basically

                      not especially grumpy

sound
the same


                      but I woke too soon
                      and only ½ways through


        and that's o.k.


                          dancing w/god
                   (in my version he sings and dances
                                            and cracks jokes)

86th stone - afterthought



apparently:


like swallows
I see
                            an enjoyable work


the 10.000
penguins
reciting the Gita


                        that apparently never ends


as part of
the furniture
of the world


                         turning the scientist into
                                 candy-floss


                                           or
                                           balloons

85th stone - Edo-cation (aesthetics in deep-freeze )

about summertime
(+/-)


            why, I ask,
             say aloud
             what is obvious?


a new
rush of
old blood


              I have eyes
               I can see


ohnonotthatagain: Edo-cation


                Because it's comme-il-faut
                            I'm told
                   from inside a casket

84th stone - with maths ;-)

to be
spoken to


                pointing east
                at times


if not
anything
else


                 the wound
                               bleeding


budding lilacs


              from a lack of wings






Sssshh - a haibun


my ears get full … and my eyes. a sensation that's obviously a mere image of a filled mind. that there compartment that deals with input. like when you're at a dinner where everyone talk and blabber and yak-yak on and on and you find you cannot take any of it in because you're full already. the attention weakens and goes into protective hibernation and you sit looking at details. how a hand moves and the question arises: can a hand tell something about its ”wearer”? of course you can tell whether he or she does manual work. it's not that, it's kinda phrenology but for hands instead of heads 'n' faces. can you? i'm pretty sure I can tell something about how much presence in their own being people have by seeing how they use their hands when they're not thinking. some people seem to not fill out their fingers to the tips … then I notice the way a pair of breasts bulge behind fabric and … some fingers seem to suggest a slender agile person but i often see a face filled with childish sulking – and bulging with detest. then i come back to the conversation ...


hush little world
night is still

83rd tender stone - a ku-story/story-ku

               it was
magnolia flowers


                      a badly hidden
                         sound of
                            pain


dictating
the mood
of the day


                       I say nought
                                         (again)


        freefalling & shortlived


                      but offer her
                      my shoulder
                       to lean on

82nd stone on me

surrounded
by spring


                her hand
what is
a guy
to do

              in the shape
                of mine


in a desolate
        village


                 on me

81st stone - blockhead

 floods
of sunlight

                                 i had a dream
                                 and crashed it

this year too
             it seems

                     on the same rocks

to     come on
             too strong

                               as the previous one

heart of felt
in a cloudburst

I

there
