Lost on a misty mountaintop
chasing Hyakoju's fox
distant vistas unclear

the early morning dew...

So proud of my country with vistas so grand
Prejudiced yes

Known around town for her yummy moo moo
Quite a few times

dreams
on
a bespattered

imagery,
      vistas,
      portals
of vision,
a vibrant
        panorama:
pathways
        to the poetic
to explore
to expose
       words..
to
devise:
to
distill
     thoughts
     never
     yet spoken...

though the forestalling of waterfalls
evolves into a gargantuan war
weapons whistle from the mountains
beatitudes of mirth shan’t ever be eradicated...

Us “civilized” beings must try to ignore
The differences between us
Just jump on the happiness bus
One big joyous family, new vistas to explore
