sun kisses earth goodnight
an explosion of crimson
drenches the sky
children buried in rubble
cry
for food and for peace

far away
almost beyond memory
my
father's voice

out of the ashes
wild violets
bloom

losing the path
deep in the forest
I find myself
deep in the forest
losing myself
I find the path
losing the path
I find myself
deep
in the forest

there cherry trees

Hundred billion stars in the galaxy
peering
only at the Polaris.

Eyeballs catching the Kingfisher
flying
from tree to tree.

Stayed to see the sun disappear
to
watch my love: Lupus constellation.
