1095. Tree - Rumiko Kora

Translated by Miyuki Aoyama and Leza Lowitz


Within a tree

there is another tree that does not yet exist

now its branches tremble in the wind.


Within the blue sky

there is another blue sky that does not yet exist

now a bird flies across its horizon.


Within a body

there is another body that does not yet exist

now its shrine gathers new blood.


Within a city

there is another city that does not yet exist

now its plazas sway where I am heading
