There is not the poem here.
So this is not a poem.
Where is the poem?
In the sticking?
In the spilling-out?
In the opening?

There is not the poem here.

Woman's eyes
A collapsing back
Scattered sandals
The silence of the sky

I cannot
laugh,
lament,
sing,
and anger.

Snow in the night
is dizziness.
The Galaxy in winter
is tinnitus.

Haiku of Jack Kerouac(3)


(photo) citrus called Yuzu


Mule on the seashore
One thousand foot
Bridge above


海辺のスリッパ
それを跨いだ
一千の足

■I was impressed with his imagination that envisioned one thousand foot from a mule on the seashore. However I cannot understand the reason " one thousand foot bridge", not " one thousand feet bridges" is.

Haiku of Jack Kerouac(2)

Apassionata Sonata
― hiballs, gray
Afternoon in October


熱情ソナタ

ハイボール
10月の灰色の午後

■A happy new year.
I'm interested in the difference between the image of October in US and that in Japan. I cannot think October is a gray month. October in Japan is the month that has a clear large blue sky. The phrase "
gray Afternoon in October " , I think, has the same kind of feelings as " The October Country" by Ray Bradbury has. I was attracted by the combination of three nouns in this haiku.
