it’s the world,
your world,

forgiveness
if we think
only God forgives
then we are weaker

Travelling the Narrow Roads with Basho
Go where
The wind blows
Far into the interior
Of the mind
Of your haiku
Then beyond
Its borders
Through towns
Pass common folks
Over seas
And in love
With your
Companion
Only to return
To reality
That is the Edo.

Is the sure bet
But you are either
The horse
Or the punter, and
Never both at once.
