A Room of My Own: A Fistful Tanka

a fistful
of childhood river sand
sifts back to sand ...
without my first love
Time and I become one


Added:  Against the Drowning Noise of Other Words, C: "Hezbollah" 

pillars of fire 
and cloud after cloud of smoke ...
the minutes
unrolling Hezbollah news
and news spreading fake news


Added

between the pages
of The Art of Loving
a wrinkled note ...
this borrowed book gives me
a borrowed life from my dream


FYI: The Art of Loving, a 1956 book by psychoanalyst and social philosopher Erich Fromm, explores the meaning and practice of love, arguing that it is not a feeling but an art that requires knowledge and effort to truly thrive.


Added

the tip 
of a blade of grass
at twilight
this floating world 
in a dewdrop
