HALF-SUMMER HAIKUS

A sleeping boy breathes

in the shadow of plane trees.

Noonlight splinters blue.

The field is empty in

this hollow sun

a choir of skeletons

sings currents in the wind.

Futures like this

do not spring in a vacuum

where a girl breathes blossom

in empty streets

where the air survives silence.
