Washi paper, every fantasy
begins on the page:
Washi! Jumping like a frog,
Basho on steroids
Brushstrokes wild, the Beatles
are playing, boys
Japanese girl, calligraphy poem
writ large
Here's my Hokusai wave
rolling into Tokyo bay.
Washi Paper
Washi paper, every fantasy begins on the page:
Washi! I'm jumping like a frog, Basho on steroids
Brushstrokes wild, the Beatles are playing, boys
Here's my Hokusai wave rolling into Tokyo bay
Japanese girl, calligraphy poem writ large.
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
