Judo
JUDO
Savage judoka
A Coriolis effect
of black belt, white blur
His dynamic demeanor,
often mistaken for a language
of violence, is reckless abandon
fueled by his passion and barely
restrained by his purity of heart
and by the social conventions of a
pluralist society afraid of the tiles
in the shimmering mosaic that
dazzles the people of a planet
in need
No wasted motion
Each day is branded with the
poignant poetics of an action haiku
choreographed gently by
one hundred kilos
in congruent rotation
with mayhem and doubt
