Scenery

I and my family traveled Hokkaido in the summer of 1984

 


Mt. Daisetsu
     Vomits out of its abdomen
          Sputtering poisonous gas
               Of magma's fetal movement

               Lake Mashu is
          Bottomless blue
     Cryptically
Calm

Soft slope
     Of Mihoro Summit !
          Over the faraway horizon
               Cumulonimbus is welling up

               Canopy is
          Boundlessly
     Deep
In indigo blue
