oppresive heat
oppresive heat
the cat licks its fur
from the clothes brush
New Year’s Day
New Year’s Day
a shingleback tastes
the air
afternoon heat
afternoon heat
honey makers and honey eaters
at the water’s edge
after Xmas lunch
after Xmas lunch
the quiet of the bathroom
Yuletide log
boxing day torpor
boxing day torpor
we watch the adds for
hot cross buns
bitter tannins
bitter tannins
the sparrow rests on the road
too long
these haiku
these haiku…
falling almond blossoms
in a spring breeze
rolling thunder
rolling thunder
empty grain trucks
in the summer heat
taiko drumbeat
taiko drumbeat
the underpass at
Shin-Osaka
