pilgrimage—
the clack-clack of geta
on the stone
path /ha
strong tradewinds come and go
scents of wild
radish /kk
sick at heart,
in my dream the roller
coaster
never stops /jd
a man's briefcase
jams the revolving door /zpr
after the fire,
only chimneys left
among
ashes /bk
the moon's illusion
puffed up in a summer sky /kk
stars twinkle
a Cheshire cat's grin
through the
arbor /ts
little ballerinas dance
in the looking
glass /ha
winter butterfly
perfectly still, warming
its
wings /kk
a wicker fishnet hangs
on a hook at the
wharf /kk
how rough the shore rocks,
yet, your perfumed
wrist
soft against my lips /zpr
"fasten your seatbelts
it's going to be a bumpy night!"

exit poll:
the People's Popular
Party
isn't /jec
honey-lemon cake
soaked in 40% Sambucca /ts
wet black locust leaves
on every branch
the
moon /ha
a covey of noisy quail
forage the brush
piles /jd
with the radio on,
grandfather sleeps
sitting
up /zpr
end of school field trip
to Legoland /bk
a space probe
combs the inky
universe
for intelligent life /jd
is it a sage or a statue
at the gate of the spring
sun /anonymous
the cherry tree
I planted long ago
filled with
blossoms /bk
balmy breeze,
a city rises out of the desert /jd
