such darkness . . .a kumara swells withinnight's belly
look now!forever nowthis light
night sky —the Southern Cross cutsthrough my heart
desolate wind —by a sanctuary lightsilence wails
rising sun —an earthquake rumbleshere or there
fluttering web —by Hiruharama's lightmy will bleeds dry
misty rain —a glimpse of mountainsfill the garden
winter rain—an ant bears the weightof the world
