heavens gate (ordinary heaven)

A few more of these useless poems. It just keeps me awake. Better than coffee.

standing at the crossing
cars, fumes and noise
the very flower
kohsaten kuruma ya noizu ga
Hana to saki
交差点  
クルマやノイズが    
花と咲き

don’t you see, don’t you understand
it is raining
everywhere
iikai? yokumite!
ima ame ga hutteiru
shiho happo ame dayo
いいかい? 良く見て!
今、雨が降っている
四方八方
雨だよ

In the street
A dancing and laughing fool
Heavens gate
Doko kashiko
waratte odoru orokamono
yominokuni wa
hirakareshi
どこかしこ  
笑って踊る愚か者   
黄泉の国は    
開かれし
