Anticipation Generic butterflies swarm Twists, knots, fluttering They find no golden nectar Only number two pencils

Bickering tree frogs Endless croaking back and forth Dream a soothing song One where two branches can meet In this capital forest

To grasp at the root This longing for the seasons Hidden deep, deep down To say it’s just “Natural,” Would only scratch the leaf-tops

My White Cloak Part one: Place Entering day by day (1) Into a place to grow and stay Into the foundational walls of old

Sweet little black box From metalic elogy Sleep now, sing no more

The darkest of nights It is on these nights I turn To these keys, clicking Fervently beyond reason Behind safely shadowed doors

Howling and wailing Like the vast October winds Delightful to find Many who share the same chord Sing till frogs jump in our throat…

A stone for a head A dauntingly fragile nose Sudden convulsions To lay my head down in peace My vestigial heart begs

愛の歌 空に隠れた それなのに この忘れない 音、まだ響く

A sudden rain flux A faintly calling whisper To turn off eyelids Yet I cannot shake my dream For just another hour

Such an empty sky Countless pensive glances are Over and over Swallowed swift, before their time If only I could keep them

Five points to this as stated thus… Five; to pick up things once falle… Four; to grasp all things from wir… Three; to greet, to cheat, and din… Two; to bind wild lovers with gold…
