Kakinomoto no Hitomaro

This morning I will not
Comb my hair.
It has lain
Pillowed on the hand of my lover.

Asa ne gami
Ware wa kezuraji
Utsukushiki
Kimi ga ta makura
Fureteshi mono wo


- translated by Kenneth Rexroth
from One Hundred Poems from the Japanese

Kakinomoto no Hitomaro Now here it is, your moment of Zen A love poem scrawled from one stranger to another I love the smell of napalm in the morning
Wake up with the king I would like to step out of my heart and go walking beneath the enormous sky Trampling the streetlights, the crushed cups under my feet Man, unadorned
My Name is Asher Lev
