Rain

We walk together,
Our shoulders touch every now and then,
The rain pouring down your umbrella.
The cold bites.  We hardly talk.
But we find pleasure 
In smelling the rain.

Old Tiger

The old tiger, perhaps
Fat and strong a long time ago,
Looks subdued. He barely
Moves his head,
As flies land proudly
On his nose and ears.

Smell of Rain

When there is rain
I need no aphrodisiac—
Its smell is enough!

Now

Now is the time
but there’s nothing I can do.
Something is lost, the upshot
of trying hard to chase the gold.
And the ensuing confusion
rattles me on the borderline
with a cursing cold.

So What

So what if I drift today?
Anyway people have nothing to say—
that is, if one doesn’t have this
sense or the boldness
to admit this, too,
whatever others’ deepness,
is itself a part of the stroll
we call experience.

Something

Something is wrong
that cannot be denied.
Still people think
it's gonna be all right.
I hate to think
they're too lazy to think,
so they just let the demon
drink and drink.
