Senryu

"...cold in absence of your laughter..."

Senryu

1.

spider’s hands
scribble
on the moon-soaked wall

2.

north balcony
my hands grow cold
in absence of your laughter

3.

late night concert
bleary eyes reach
for the paracetamol

4.

I wish --
the sun burns
into a yellow ash

5.

mother’s room
they keep coming
blue orioles

6.

honeybees glitter
light rupture
in the logs of sound
