Uncut and unphased
By sickle in sky

Than moon in sky –
Smaller than moon in cloud break

On days when big clouds
Are flying by in the sky –
I feel the world turn –
Forward or backward depends
On the day and way I look

The lightest of rain
From an oak trees sky

Tanka T151
In the middle of
The Arizona desert –
Just after midnight –
The silence is deafening –
And the night sky is blinding

A long braided cloud –
Stretched across the sky –
On a terrestrial head

Tanka T140
At least as good as
Getting answers on the run –
Is getting answers –
Under a huge starry sky –
In the middle of nowhere
Getting answers on the run –
Is getting answers –
Under a huge starry sky –
In the middle of nowhere

Swept by wind across the sky –
