Sentimental Cremation

1
fist snow in the cemetery
I cremate dead wood
in the iron stove

2
you have circumcised the potato
why?

3
peel the onion
peel her clothes off
then such divine scent
of a naked goddess
will make you weep
and repent

4
tomorrow is yours
your yesterday is gone
with your dream

5
you were divorced five times
because you were married five times
but you will die only once
because you were born only once

6
my alluring lady
I have two desires
both heterosexual
would you like to have one?
I only need one
when I look at you

7
to be continued
because I cannot continue

Snow Flakes

silently
snow flakes fall
in the stillness
of this dark winter night
as did cherry blossom petals
in the stillness
of that bright spring day
long ago
far away
silently
