Indian Summer haibun
A chapter in the book 2017 JAPANESE POETRY
haibun (king of nothing)
by Gypsy Blue Rose
The weather is getting warm in Sacramento. This morning on my way to the store, I saw a king walking towards me. His shimmering cadet blue cape waved haphazardly in the wind giving him an ethereal quality. As he moved closer I noticed it was not a king’s cape, it was a thermal blanket. I realized he was a homeless man on his way to nowhere. As he walked by me, we exchanged glances and bowed slightly. eyes ablaze reflect Indian Summer- king of nothing |
