a fat pigeon
struts at our feet...
oh, how tame!

Linked Verse Collaboration: The Virtual Za
Some of you may have discovered a collaboration between Hototogisu and me. For several weeks now we have been creating a renku-like 36-verse linked poem. Each post is either a two-line or a three-line haiku-like poem in which each verse links in some way to the previous one and goes through the seasons beginning with Summer and ending in Spring. Renku has a long tradition in Japan. We are following many of these traditions but have simplified things in some ways (e.g. Moon, Blossom, and Love references are not mandatory).
Our semi-daily posts appear in The Virtual Za Blog.
In order to keep track of seasons, kigo, link types, and so on, we use the following Google spreadsheet:
The Virtual Za Work Sheet
We invite you to follow along.

112. A Year Ago: Katrina
sack of rice —
the contents flow out
through a hole
[This poem I wrote last September (2005) was based on a dream I had at the time. It later reminded me of the effects of Hurricane Katrina with the breeches of the levee and how the people poured through meagre evacuation routes. Also, many folks died, pouring through a hole into their next world.]
