Kobayashi Issa
This moth saw brightness
by Kobayashi Issa
This moth saw brightness
in a woman's chamber--
burnt to a crisp.

That wren
In the thicket's shade
The toad! It looks like
The pheasant cries
Napped half the day
Not very anxious
Visiting the graves
Under my house
In these latter-day
Under the image of Buddha

Quotes of the Day
I've never been married, but I tell people I'm divorced so they won't think something's wrong with me.
