Zinovy Vayman – Haikuish Response to Del Ray


Zinovy Vayman

Haikuish Response to Del Ray


beyond blue sky
pitch black cosmos and
another blue sky

park bench
an old man’s slowly nodding
to the warm autumn sun

balmy autumn day
a military planner’s dozing
above the map

Indian summer
this land’s history’s written
by the winners

return to SHAMPOO 15
