Counting small fish
Under the waves.

Outside my window
A pair of frogs.

I knew that tree 
When it was just a boy.

Of cranes.

From the drainpipe
A frog's song.

When I too, would fly
With distant cranes.

A thrill!

A dozen dark women
With brooms.

The hairy spider.

For no reason-

A sea of wrinkles.

Jealous
Of the full moon.

Even a spider 
Shifts and turns.

Too lazy to shout:
Welcome back!

With no moon 
Stars below.

A fat guy with young Thai
And a cigar.
