that plain that is east of paradise
the wood between - hiramatsu reiji
wise men and fools
the world is a blind man squatting on the road

a mule has better dreams than this   a man dreamsÂ
of winter in the summer and of summer when it's winterÂ
he curses the rain   except when times are very dryÂ
another man counts his dollars over and overÂ
while his child wants him to come outside and kick the ball aroundÂ
time passes at the same speed for wise men and foolsÂ
which are you   and which am I   even nowÂ
the moon is a bindi for the forehead of the rich and dark skyÂ

The more grateful we feel, the happier we become. This is because gratitude helps us realize we are all connected. Haemin Sunim
from my backyard
the inside of your nostrils itch   that's a warning
the mountain peak that is never without snowÂ
the window pane that crackedÂ
and you covered the crack with duct tapeÂ
that plain that is east of paradise  the one that is barren and hot
and no one has ever tried to walk across itÂ
honey that drips onto your lips from her lipsÂ
and the way she bites youÂ
is there more than one universe   yes indeedÂ
does it make any difference at all   no  none at allÂ
the inside of your nostrils itch   that's a warning
a change is comingÂ
and you are not in control of anything Â
