spontaneous poem project. it's based on a japanese historical person.
His fingers stroke the strings
till they snap. silence.
Onyx eyes shut
in Darkness.
Broken hair falls
over the face he wears.
Fiery red reflection
at dead midnight.
        Bishamonten
        Bishamonten.
Chants cut short.
Heaven’s Justice
served
in a cup of sake’.
