frost moon
an invitation
i should have declined

a crow's hoarse caws long autumn rain

autumn gusts
the rustle of my
spelt husk pillow

snow-bearing clouds
a juvenile swan
stretches its wing

Mu II

long day's end
the measured wingbeats
of a grey heron

video conference
the reverberations
of a yawn

A Hundred Gourds 2:2

visiting the living
on All Souls' Day...
aspens in the snow
