PRVE TANKE


短歌 Tanka 和歌 Waka

by Dimitar Anakiev


travelling
over the ocean
we met Jaxon
cultural differences
are they important
3/26/11 (天理,Tenri, NYC)

among the shelves
of books in a bookstore
a women steps in
seeking a book on drama
filing the universe
3/27/11 (Barnes & Noble, USQ,NYC)

every morning
I travel on the train by
old graffiti
pushing my thoughts
in other directions
Alma Anakiev, 3/26/11 (天理,Tenri, NYC)


Fukushima's
over-radiated worker
dying in hospital
his daughter watches
the radiating Moon
3/27/11 (Staten Island, NYC)

thinking
about my American situation
squirrels
jumping over the fence
from both sides
3/30/11 (Staten Island, NYC)

a red sun rises
over the earthquake
tsunami & radiation
making the Emperor
speak to homeless
3/30/11 (Staten Island, NYC)

soft soul goes
out through the voice
young opera singer
singing for tips
hurt my soul
3/31/11 (Staten Island, NYC)

a turtle
in Av. of Americas
gets lost
but finds surprising ideas
amassed by spring wind
3/31/11 (Avenue of America, NYC)

silence in church
Transfiguration of Jesus
I sit in an angle
waiting for transfiguration
until the parsons came
4/1/11 (St. Joseph, Greenwich Village)




every morning
I travel on the train by
old graffiti
pushing my thoughts
in other directions

mad folks
of willing for power
sink into mad
Easter bells are
stolen by parsons
#
here is the president
speaking vociferously
then silences
rooster loudly crowing
the night silently comes
#
coquettishly
the LGTB make love
with bearded bishops
from wooden crosses
nettles are fluorish
#

while you are away
your hat sleeps next to me
on the pillow
but I wonder what happens
if a scarecrow steals your hat?
#

silence in church
St. Joseph in Greenwich Village
I sit in an angle
until it became full of people
untill the parsons came
#

silence in the church
Transfiguration of Jesus
I sit in an angle
enjoying the mystic
until the parsons came
#

white waterfall
before Chase bank
and red tulips
by Rockefeller Center
wait for Hiro Sato
#

a pigeon
in South Ferry terminal
seeks food
each 6th American hungry
in this too rich country
#




oatmeal raisin cookie
I eat while comfortable undressed
51st birthday
two bible sellers wish me
a welcome to the United States

#
storm on the sea
in the bay of Manhattan
a seagull
flies above the waves
contrary to the wind
#

Staten Island Railway
car's door opens just for me
to see gusts of rain
traveling from Eltingville
towards the bay of St. George
#

accompanied
by un old umbrela
of my cousin
I watch rain slopes
in an empty station
#

in Brookfield avenue
wind creates a storm
in a sea of petals
I am passing by
with a storm in my soul

#
to poet passed away
premature
departure from provinces
to the sky
today's hot
as in hell
#
