Kataka rises first; the sun follows.
I make tea
Two cranes stand still in the water of the
pond. Which is the reflection?
Her mind: a swallow
Mine: a stream
Together: harmony
Fierce thought mellows, sun melts
Slips sizzling into the sea.
Outside my paper walls
Fireflies write poetry on the night air
Drift of hair
Rise of chest, and fall
Slow tide
After years in millions, the mysterious sea
Still rocks and whispers
In her animal body.
