Gogyohka! Now with mini-rant! (6/12/09)

This air!
It's a damp towel
impossible to dry.
It turns the honeysuckle
into honey.

The Japanese gogyohka writer Mont wrote this one,

The essence of the universe
is repetition.
But all the same one
is nowhere in a universe.
Tomorrow is always all new.

Which I really liked, and so wrote this one,

Nothing belongs
to anyone
We all
just capture
cosmic expressions.

Which /he/ really liked, so he wrote this one,

we just borrow
from the earth
from the universe
from the Creator
if you exist.

(!)

Also, I like Paul Newman's cookies, the ones called Ginger O's. However, they list their flavor as "ginger and créme." Now, ok, I know they're marketing to the young and presumed sophisticated, but, really, "créme"? You're gonna do that? With the accent? Créme.

Having said that, it didn't stop from eating five today. Woo-hoo!
