Now!
Rise up from vajra hell
On phurbas impaled
The thunder of the buddhas wisdom
Servants of light -
Virtue prevail

another day ends
this Namu-Amida-Bu
new among the old

waiting for something --
it will happen, but when, when?
Buddha on his way

the old leaking roof
and the rain, the rain, the rain
vows keeping me dry

rushes across the thangka --
headlong towards freedom

sick, painful body --
with you, turning to the West
without you, Namu

Re: Haiku today.
who will get tired first:
me, or this run-down old house?
I won't stay to know.

with the spring flowers,
nembutsu, too, is blooming:
blue, yellow, red, white.

as I read his words,
my teacher there, beside me,
full of sympathy

it would have been nice
not to get caught in the rain
wet juzu still works
---
i don't mind the loss,
spring dream, summer dream, fall dream,
winter nembutsu

Bright leaf
reflects: no more rain;

At evening
I rescue fallen blossoms
Orange and purple.
So soon!

this net of desires
detains me from the Pure Land --
but one day, one day
---
I walk soaked with mud,
yet the pine trees smell so fresh --
incense for Buddha
