Red leaves
visited by the worm. How many eyes has
the sunset!

Mu
Two messy eyebrows
one little childhood scar.
The skyline on the sand
and four drops of green tea.
So one writes blank.

Haiku for a new-born child [VII]
In the infancy section:
how difficult not to buy
every useless thing.

Out of season [IV]
The evening is through.
Nina picks up from the floor
something broken.

More music for zen apocryphal
I've added two new music tracks written by Giuseppe Rizzo for the project zen apocryphal. They are «Dentro la cascata» (Inside the waterfall) and «Nina». You can list to the first one (just press forward in the player until you find it) while you read this haiku, for the second one have a little bit patient.

[You speak good]
You speak good
raising your stick from the ground
but you don’t close your eyes.
The otherwise fuck us this
inability to imagine anything
nothing else than the always pressed on the eyes
about the darkness one fears above all
what is no more dark.
It’s a start.
Don’t leave it to the rain.

Apocryphal koans: Case VII
Two monks worked silently digging the ground behind the monstery. After a while one of them exclaimed: – Buddha is right here!
The other one said: – Look where you work, you are digging already dug ground!
The first monk had an important intuition.
Poem
If you dig the ground, Buddha is with you.
If you don’t dig the ground, Buddha is with you.
If you dig already dug ground, dig harder:
Buddha never moved!

Autumn [I]
In a week
more leaves are fallen
than raindrops in a year.

Open wardrobe
the child’s mouth
is closed in a O.

Elevator light:
eight second of silence
with a stranger.
